Cavity wall insulation removal across Bedfordshire
We cover 5 towns in Bedfordshire: Luton, Bedford, Dunstable, Leighton Buzzard and Ampthill.
Before any material is chosen, exposure is checked. Much of Bedfordshire 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.
Defects such as failed pointing, leaking gutters and bridged damp-proof courses are listed and priced separately for Bedfordshire properties, so you can choose who fixes them. Where a Bedfordshire 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.
Building Regulations in England
Filling an existing cavity wall is notifiable building work in England. Either a building notice goes to building control before the work, or the installer self-certifies it through a government-approved competent person scheme such as CIGA's CWISC scheme. The insulation used must also be suitable for the wall it goes into, which is why the survey checks construction, condition and exposure first.

If you have a guarantee
Contact your original installer first. If that does not resolve it within two months, CIGA's process applies for CIGA-guaranteed installs. Removing insulation yourself can void a guarantee, so speak to the provider before work.
