Exposure matters for every cavity wall. Much of Nottinghamshire 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.

Should I remove my cavity wall insulation?
Not always. Welsh Government guidance makes the point that extraction is not always the right remedy. Damp can come from blocked gutters, failed pointing, bridged damp-proof courses or condensation, none of which removal fixes. We start with a damp investigation and borescope checks, then recommend removal only where the fill itself is the problem.
