Cavity wall suitability survey for Leicester properties

If your property is in Leicester or the LE1 district or nearby Oadby, Wigston Magna and Loughborough, it is within our Leicestershire coverage. Leicester is one of the main towns we cover in Leicestershire.

Buyers and sellers in Leicester often book this check when a survey report or EPC raises questions about the walls. Where a Leicester wall shows cold patches or damp, the survey targets those areas first rather than sampling at random.

Wind-driven rain is the first thing the surveyor weighs up. Much of Leicestershire 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 Leicester 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.
