Cavity wall insulation for Camden Town properties
If your property is in Camden Town or the NW1 district or nearby Chalk Farm, Holloway and Islington, it is within our Greater London coverage. It is about 2 miles north of London.
Camden Town properties with rendered or painted walls get a closer look at the outer finish, because cracked render can let rain behind it. A suitable wall in Camden Town is usually filled in a single day from outside, with drill holes made good to match the pointing.
Local weather affects which walls can be filled. Much of Greater London 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.
As for paperwork, in Camden Town filling a cavity is notifiable building work and needs a building notice or competent-person self-certification.
Funding in England
In England, ECO4 runs to 31 December 2026 and Warm Homes: Local Grant supports low-income households through councils.

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.
