Cavity wall suitability survey across Mid Glamorgan
We cover 7 towns in Mid Glamorgan, including Rhondda, Tonypandy, Bridgend, Merthyr Tydfil, Pontypridd and more.
Before any material is chosen, exposure is checked. Parts of Mid Glamorgan 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.
Every inspection point in Mid Glamorgan is photographed and logged, so you have a record to show a buyer, lender or contractor. A survey in Mid Glamorgan gives you facts before anyone drills: what the wall is, what is in the cavity and whether it is sound.
Building Regulations in Wales
In Wales, filling an existing cavity is also notifiable building work under the Building Regulations as they apply in Wales. A registered installer normally self-certifies it through a competent person scheme; otherwise a building notice goes to your council's building control before work starts. Welsh rules can differ from England's, so the notification route is confirmed in writing on your quote.
