Cavity insulation top-up for Egham properties
We cover Egham and the TW20 postcode district, including nearby Staines, Sunbury-on-Thames and Walton-on-Thames. It is around 14 miles north of Guildford.
For semi-detached and terraced homes in Egham, cavity barriers are fitted where your wall meets your neighbour's so the fill stays on your side. Most Egham 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.
Every elevation is judged on its own exposure. Much of Surrey sits in the more sheltered driving-rain zones of the UK, which widens the choice of fill. Exposed elevations, coastal sites and high ground still get checked wall by wall.
In terms of approvals, in Egham filling a cavity is notifiable building work and needs a building notice or competent-person self-certification.

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.
