The surveyor will locate the wall ties by means of a metal detector, drill a small hole within the mortar bed next to the wall tie and insert an endoscope (camera) to inspect the condition of the wall tie and the condition of the cavity. From this inspection it will be possible to see if the wall tie is corroded or has snapped within the cavity. Once the endoscope is withdrawn, the drill hole is filled. Normally 2-3 holes are drilled to each elevation of the property.
