Cavity cleaning and debris removal for Dundee properties
If your property is in Dundee or the DD1 district or nearby Forfar, Arbroath and Perth, it is within our Tayside coverage. Dundee is one of the main towns we cover in Tayside.
If your Dundee installation has a guarantee, we check it first; the guarantee route may cover the work. We never cold-call in Dundee or anywhere else, and we do not work with doorstep claims companies.
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.
On compliance, if cavity wall insulation follows in Dundee, no building warrant is needed for insulation within a wall, but the work must meet the building standards.
Rules in Scotland
No building warrant is needed for insulation within a wall, but the work must meet the building standards if insulation work follows.
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.
