Helical wall ties not going in

It can be done. Take your time. Good prep first. Make hole larger.

Dont listen to mr bonkers above!

I'm not saying it can't be done. Just sounds like an irreversible faff, is all. I'm making a point that not all cavities are the same. Once a larger hole is drilled, it becomes an issue.

I admire your optimism. How do you clean out the hole? Is fighting cavity insulation optional, lol.

Bonkers.

I have done this numerous times without issue and if you read my post i said "Make sure you blow or vac out the holes using a straw or similar to get rid of the dust in both skins first." As for cavity insulation, if it is cavity batts then the drill will have created a hole which the nozzle will use and if loose fill then it will not obstruct anything pushing through it. Not sure why you have a problem with the process as it is really very simple to do.

It does look like solid plastic tubes are used, so would be easy to bodge the process.

I like how they illustrate the process with a clear cavity.
