Cavity wall insulation for Crawley properties
If your property is in Crawley or the RH11 district or nearby Horsham, East Grinstead and Haywards Heath, it is within our West Sussex coverage. Crawley is one of the main towns we cover in West Sussex.
If a wall in Crawley 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. For semi-detached and terraced homes in Crawley, cavity barriers are fitted where your wall meets your neighbour's so the fill stays on your side.
Every elevation is judged on its own exposure. West Sussex 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, in Crawley 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.
