Remove and refill for Burnham-on-Sea properties
We cover Burnham-on-Sea and the TA8 postcode district, including nearby Weston-super-Mare, Bridgwater and Clevedon. It is around 16 miles north of Taunton.
Defects such as failed pointing, leaking gutters and bridged damp-proof courses are listed and priced separately for Burnham-on-Sea properties, so you can choose who fixes them. If your Burnham-on-Sea installation has a guarantee, we check it first; the guarantee route may cover the work.
Local weather affects which walls can be filled. Somerset 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.
In terms of approvals, if cavity wall insulation follows in Burnham-on-Sea, 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.
