Cavity cleaning and debris removal in Tayside

Cavity cleaning removes mortar droppings, brick rubble and builders' debris from the bottom of a cavity or from ties, where it can bridge the gap and carry moisture to the inner wall. Our Tayside coverage includes Dundee, Perth, Arbroath and the towns around them.

Bricks removed at the base of a wall so mortar debris can be raked out of the cavity

Cavity cleaning and debris removal across Tayside

We cover 4 towns in Tayside: Dundee, Perth, Arbroath and Forfar.

Before any material is chosen, exposure is checked. Tayside 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.

Where a Tayside wall does need work, bricks are lifted and rebuilt in matching mortar, and the cavity is checked with a camera before it is closed up. If your Tayside installation has a guarantee, we check it first; the guarantee route may cover the work.

Building standards in Scotland

In Scotland, work associated with thermal insulating material within a wall is listed in schedule 3 of the Building (Scotland) Regulations as work that does not need a building warrant. It must still meet the building standards, so the survey still checks that the wall and the chosen material are suitable, including exposure to wind-driven rain.

Sources: Scottish Government: building work not requiring a warrant (schedule 3).

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.

What is included

  • Borescope check to locate debris
  • Brick removal at low level
  • Raking and vacuum clearance
  • Rebuild in matching mortar
