Cavity wall insulation for Slough properties
If your property is in Slough or the SL1 district or nearby Windsor, Maidenhead and Bracknell, it is within our Berkshire coverage. It is around 17 miles east of Reading.
A suitable wall in Slough is usually filled in a single day from outside, with drill holes made good to match the pointing. For semi-detached and terraced homes in Slough, cavity barriers are fitted where your wall meets your neighbour's so the fill stays on your side.
Local weather affects which walls can be filled. Much of Berkshire 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 the rules side, in Slough filling a cavity is notifiable building work and needs a building notice or competent-person self-certification.
Funding in England

What happens on the day?
Holes of around 22mm are drilled in the mortar joints in a set pattern, roughly a metre apart. The insulation is blown in from the bottom up until each section is full, then every hole is filled with colour-matched mortar. Air bricks and flues are protected, and a cavity barrier is fitted where your wall joins a neighbour's.
