Cavity wall insulation removal for Leominster properties
Our Herefordshire coverage takes in Leominster (HR6) and nearby Hereford, Ledbury and Ross-on-Wye. It is around 12 miles north of Hereford.
Defects such as failed pointing, leaking gutters and bridged damp-proof courses are listed and priced separately for Leominster properties, so you can choose who fixes them. We never cold-call in Leominster or anywhere else, and we do not work with doorstep claims companies.
Wind-driven rain is the first thing the surveyor weighs up. Herefordshire 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.
For regulations, if cavity wall insulation follows in Leominster, filling a cavity is notifiable building work and needs a building notice or competent-person self-certification.

How extraction works
Bricks are carefully removed in a line near the base and at intervals higher up where needed. The fill is broken up and drawn out with an extraction vacuum, the cavity is cleared and checked with a camera, and the bricks are rebuilt in matching mortar. Extracted material is bagged and disposed of properly.
