Cavity wall suitability survey for Wigston Magna properties
Our Leicestershire coverage takes in Wigston Magna (LE18) and nearby Oadby, Leicester and Hinckley. It is roughly 4 miles south-east of Leicester.
The written result for your Wigston Magna property is plain English: what we found, what it means and what, if anything, to do next. Where a Wigston Magna 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 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.
On the rules side, in Wigston Magna filling a cavity is notifiable building work and needs a building notice or competent-person self-certification.
