What happens here

To access the hollow cores of the concrete blocks from the interior, remove sections of the existing insulation and drywall. This exposes the top of the block wall, allowing for the core-filling process. Identify the sections of the wall that need to be filled, typically corresponding to where the tensioning cables are located.

Goal: Expose concrete block cores for filling

Tools and materials

  • Pry Bar — Removing sections of drywall and insulation
  • Reciprocating Saw Makita — Cutting through drywall and insulation
  • Drywall — Material to be removed
  • Insulation Johns Manville — Material to be removed
