Hi all,
I live in an end terrace that my partner and I moved into five months ago. Since then I've noticed the end wall makes an intermittent metallic "pinging" sound. It's a standard brick cavity wall with insulation.
There is no plumbing anywhere near the end wall. There are no signs of structural issues up to the roof line, but above that the gable is an issue as it leans out. We believe that's historic.
The only thing I can see it being is a wall tie? Or ties? They would be the only metallic components nearby, apart from the gable restraint straps. The noise is keeping me up at night, more from worry than volume.
