Borescope cavity inspection for Holyhead properties
Holyhead is among the towns we cover in Gwynedd, alongside Caernarfon and Bangor. It is about 20 miles west of Bangor.
The written result for your Holyhead property is plain English: what we found, what it means and what, if anything, to do next. Buyers and sellers in Holyhead often book this check when a survey report or EPC raises questions about the walls.
Exposure matters for every cavity wall. Parts of Gwynedd 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.
On compliance, if cavity wall insulation follows in Holyhead, filling a cavity is notifiable work under the Building Regulations as they apply in Wales, usually self-certified through a competent person scheme.
