I need to brick up part of a window. Any thoughts on how to tie the new brickwork to the timber lintel? I'm thinking just nail some expamet on and cement it in. Also, should I fit a proper cavity closer or just close in brick/dpc strip as it is now? It's old 1930's so I doubt it will make much difference. Or - as I'll fill the new cavity with 50mm celotex, just run that to the end of the brickwork and bond plasterboard over it?
Thanks.
Thanks.
