NeilCKO Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 Hi, Please excuse me I am a DIYer and had no training etc. I have built 4 courses of a double skin concrete block wall. Now that I have got to the stage of laying blocks flat along the top I have got an issue. The two skins are not level, there is nearly an inch in height difference. Does anybody know what is the best way around this problem? Many thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bassanclan Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 All you can do is make the mortar bed thicker and try and get it evened up over a couple of courses Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radian Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 If it's a cavity wall then I'm wondering about the position of your wall ties. The maximum horizontal spacing should be 900mm and the maximum vertical spacing 450mm so you should already have a couple of rows with ties.
