Borescope cavity inspection for Ayr properties
We cover Ayr and the KA8 postcode district, including nearby Irvine and Kilmarnock. It is roughly 12 miles south-west of Kilmarnock.
The written result for your Ayr property is plain English: what we found, what it means and what, if anything, to do next. A survey in Ayr gives you facts before anyone drills: what the wall is, what is in the cavity and whether it is sound.
Every elevation is judged on its own exposure. Parts of Ayrshire face some of the heaviest wind-driven rain in the UK, especially exposed coastal and upland sites. Here the survey is stricter: some walls suit only certain certified systems, and some should not be filled at all.
For regulations, if cavity wall insulation follows in Ayr, no building warrant is needed for insulation within a wall, but the work must meet the building standards.
Rules in Scotland
No building warrant is needed for insulation within a wall, but the work must meet the building standards if insulation work follows.

How many holes?
Enough to be representative: typically several per elevation, plus targeted checks below windows, at corners and near any damp patches. Each one is photographed and logged.
