Surveys

We deliver quality assured, environmentally conscious Wall and Roof surveys.

Wall & Loft Surveys

Investing in home insulation offers significant returns, often exceeding the combined cost of materials and installation. Cavity wall insulation, in particular, requires professional installation but may be significantly cheaper thanks to potential insulation grants. We utilise the most suitable material for your home, ensuring even distribution throughout the cavity between the inner and outer brickwork. This process, known as cavity filling, is performed at the appropriate density to effectively minimise heat loss through convection.

Wall Survey

Introduced in 1932, cavity walls aimed to improve moisture management in buildings. The air gap between the external and internal walls allowed absorbed water to drain downwards, preventing it from reaching the interior. However, the growing popularity of cavity wall insulation since the 1970s, and its mandatory inclusion in new builds by UK regulations, presented a challenge. While offering thermal benefits, filling the cavity with insulation removed the original protective air gap. This, if installed incorrectly, could lead to water transfer from the exterior to the internal walls, causing dampness issues.

Unfortunately, faulty installations have indeed resulted in damp problems for many homeowners, despite assurances from installers about the insulation’s waterproofing abilities. The prevalence of penetrating damp across the UK highlights the potential risks associated with saturated or poorly installed cavity wall insulation.
