Cavity cleaning and debris removal for Craigavon properties
If your property is in Craigavon or the BT65 district or nearby Lurgan, Portadown and Armagh, it is within our County Armagh coverage. Craigavon is one of the main towns we cover in County Armagh.
If your Craigavon installation has a guarantee, we check it first; the guarantee route may cover the work. Damp in an insulated Craigavon home is not always the insulation's fault, so the diagnosis comes before any extraction.
Before any material is chosen, exposure is checked. Parts of County Armagh 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.
In terms of approvals, if cavity wall insulation follows in Craigavon, inserting cavity wall insulation needs a building control application to the council before work starts.

Why debris matters
A clean cavity lets water that gets through the outer leaf drain away. Debris piled at the base or caught on ties makes a bridge for that water. It is a common cause of damp low on walls and around ties, with or without insulation.
