Remove and refill for Lisburn properties
Lisburn is among the towns we cover in County Antrim, alongside Belfast, Newtownabbey and Carrickfergus. It is around 7 miles south-west of Belfast.
If your Lisburn installation has a guarantee, we check it first; the guarantee route may cover the work. Damp in an insulated Lisburn home is not always the insulation's fault, so the diagnosis comes before any extraction.
Wind-driven rain is the first thing the surveyor weighs up. Parts of County Antrim 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.
For regulations, if cavity wall insulation follows in Lisburn, inserting cavity wall insulation needs a building control application to the council before work starts.

Why refill at all?
Often the original problem was the wrong material for the exposure, poor installation or defects in the outer wall, not cavity insulation as such. Once the defects are fixed and the cavity is clean, a suitable certified system can usually go back in. Where the wall is too exposed for any fill, we say so and leave it empty.
