Gabel wall restraints fixed to risen loft boards

Diy7745 · 2024-09-21T00:22:47+0100

We have recently had our loft boarded, where (what I believe to be) the gable wall straps were removed from the frame of the house and refixed into the risen loft boards. Before and after images are included.

Is this safe, or do these need refixing directly to the house?

Thank you for any input in advance.

Are they hooked into the blockwork or face fixed?
