Remove and refill for Heanor properties
If your property is in Heanor or the DE75 district or nearby Ripley, Ilkeston and Belper, it is within our Derbyshire coverage. It is roughly 8 miles north-east of Derby.
Defects such as failed pointing, leaking gutters and bridged damp-proof courses are listed and priced separately for Heanor properties, so you can choose who fixes them. Where a Heanor 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.
Before any material is chosen, exposure is checked. Derbyshire 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 Heanor, filling a cavity is notifiable building work and needs a building notice or competent-person self-certification.
Rules in England
Filling a cavity is notifiable building work and needs a building notice or competent-person self-certification if insulation work follows.

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.
