Cavity wall suitability survey for Feltham properties
Our Greater London coverage takes in Feltham (TW14) and nearby Hanworth, Hounslow and Hampton. It is around 13 miles west of London.
Every inspection point in Feltham is photographed and logged, so you have a record to show a buyer, lender or contractor. Where a Feltham wall shows cold patches or damp, the survey targets those areas first rather than sampling at random.
Exposure matters for every cavity wall. 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.
In terms of approvals, in Feltham 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.

Wall construction and thickness at window reveals; cavity width and debris with a borescope; brickwork, pointing, render, sills, gutters and downpipes; signs of damp inside and out; air bricks and flues; joins with neighbours and extensions; and the exposure of each elevation to wind-driven rain.
