Cavity wall insulation for East Grinstead properties
East Grinstead sits in West Sussex, roughly 7 miles east of Crawley. We work across the RH19 district, including nearby Crawley, Haywards Heath and Burgess Hill.
Where an East Grinstead property has an extension or a conservatory, we check how the old and new walls meet, because that junction is often missed. For semi-detached and terraced homes in East Grinstead, cavity barriers are fitted where your wall meets your neighbour's so the fill stays on your side.
Wind-driven rain is the first thing the surveyor weighs up. 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.
As for paperwork, in East Grinstead 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.
