Borescope cavity inspection for Crawley properties
If your property is in Crawley or the RH11 district or nearby Horsham, East Grinstead and Haywards Heath, it is within our West Sussex coverage. Crawley is one of the main towns we cover in West Sussex.
Buyers and sellers in Crawley often book this check when a survey report or EPC raises questions about the walls. Where a Crawley wall shows cold patches or damp, the survey targets those areas first rather than sampling at random.
Local weather affects which walls can be filled. West Sussex has a mix of moderate and more exposed sites. Hilltop, coastal and west-facing walls take the brunt of wind-driven rain, so the survey records exposure for each elevation before a material is chosen.
On the rules side, if cavity wall insulation follows in Crawley, filling a cavity is notifiable building work and needs a building notice or competent-person self-certification.

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.
