Cavity wall suitability survey for Tiverton properties
If your property is in Tiverton or the EX16 district or nearby Exeter and Exmouth, it is within our Devon coverage. It is about 12 miles north of Exeter.
Every inspection point in Tiverton is photographed and logged, so you have a record to show a buyer, lender or contractor. Buyers and sellers in Tiverton often book this check when a survey report or EPC raises questions about the walls.
Every elevation is judged on its own exposure. Parts of Devon face some of the heaviest wind-driven rain in the UK, especially exposed coastal and upland sites. Here the survey is stricter: some walls suit only certain certified systems, and some should not be filled at all.
In terms of approvals, in Tiverton filling a cavity is notifiable building work and needs a building notice or competent-person self-certification.
Rules in England
Filling a cavity is notifiable building work and needs a building notice or competent-person self-certification if insulation work follows.
