Cavity insulation top-up for Lurgan properties
Our County Armagh coverage takes in Lurgan (BT66) and nearby Craigavon, Portadown and Armagh. It is about 2 miles east of Craigavon.
Where a Lurgan property has an extension or a conservatory, we check how the old and new walls meet, because that junction is often missed. If a wall in Lurgan is not suitable, for example because of an undiagnosed damp patch or a very exposed gable, you are told so in writing with the reason.
Every elevation is judged on its own exposure. Parts of County Armagh 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.
In terms of approvals, in Lurgan inserting cavity wall insulation needs a building control application to the council before work starts.

When a top-up is not enough
If the existing fill is wet, contaminated with debris or breaking down, adding more on top can make things worse. In that case we tell you the honest option, which may be partial or full removal and refill.
