Borescope cavity inspection for Gorseinon properties
Gorseinon sits in West Glamorgan, roughly 6 miles north-west of Swansea. We work across the SA4 district, including nearby Swansea, Briton Ferry and Neath.
Every inspection point in Gorseinon is photographed and logged, so you have a record to show a buyer, lender or contractor. A survey in Gorseinon 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 West Glamorgan 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 the rules side, if cavity wall insulation follows in Gorseinon, filling a cavity is notifiable work under the Building Regulations as they apply in Wales, usually self-certified through a competent person scheme.

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.
