Cavity wall insulation for Thornaby-on-Tees properties

Thornaby-on-Tees sits in County Durham, around 20 miles south-east of Durham. We work across the TS17 district, including nearby Stockton-on-Tees, Billingham and Darlington.

A suitable wall in Thornaby-on-Tees is usually filled in a single day from outside, with drill holes made good to match the pointing. If a wall in Thornaby-on-Tees is not suitable, for example because of an undiagnosed damp patch or a very exposed gable, you are told so in writing with the reason.

Before any material is chosen, exposure is checked. County Durham 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.

As for paperwork, in Thornaby-on-Tees filling a cavity is notifiable building work and needs a building notice or competent-person self-certification.

Is my wall suitable for cavity wall insulation?

Most homes built from the 1920s onwards have cavity walls, but having a cavity is not the same as being suitable. The Energy Saving Trust's rule of thumb is a cavity of at least 50mm, clear of rubble, behind masonry in good condition, on a wall that is not exposed to severe driving rain or flood risk.
