Cavity insulation top-up for Eastbourne properties
Eastbourne sits in East Sussex, around 19 miles east of Brighton. We work across the BN21 district, including nearby Hailsham, Seaford and Bexhill-on-Sea.
Most Eastbourne houses built from the 1920s onwards have cavity walls, but the survey still checks each one: cavity width, debris, the condition of the brickwork and how exposed each wall is. A suitable wall in Eastbourne is usually filled in a single day from outside, with drill holes made good to match the pointing.
Local weather affects which walls can be filled. East Sussex 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.
As for paperwork, in Eastbourne filling a cavity is notifiable building work and needs a building notice or competent-person self-certification.
Funding in England

How do I know if my walls need a top-up?
Cold patches on internal walls, a thermal image showing uneven heat loss, or an EPC that says 'filled cavity' when parts of the house feel colder are all signs. Extensions are a common cause: the new wall is insulated as built, but the old wall it joins may have been left partly empty.
