Cavity wall insulation removal for Tottenham properties
We cover Tottenham and the N17 postcode district, including nearby Edmonton, Wood Green and Walthamstow. It is roughly 7 miles north of London.
Defects such as failed pointing, leaking gutters and bridged damp-proof courses are listed and priced separately for Tottenham properties, so you can choose who fixes them. Where a Tottenham 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.
Local weather affects which walls can be filled. Much of Greater London 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.
On compliance, if cavity wall insulation follows in Tottenham, filling a cavity is notifiable building work and needs a building notice or competent-person self-certification.

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.
