Cavity wall insulation removal for Forfar properties
Forfar is among the towns we cover in Tayside, alongside Dundee and Arbroath. It is roughly 13 miles north of Dundee.
If your Forfar installation has a guarantee, we check it first; the guarantee route may cover the work. We never cold-call in Forfar or anywhere else, and we do not work with doorstep claims companies.
Exposure matters for every cavity wall. Tayside 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.
On the rules side, if cavity wall insulation follows in Forfar, no building warrant is needed for insulation within a wall, but the work must meet the building standards.
Rules in Scotland
No building warrant is needed for insulation within a wall, but the work must meet the building standards if insulation work follows.
Sources: Scottish Government: building work not requiring a warrant (schedule 3).
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.
