Commercial cavity wall insulation across County Armagh
We cover 4 towns in County Armagh: Craigavon, Portadown, Armagh and Lurgan.
Wind-driven rain is the first thing the surveyor weighs up. Parts of County Armagh 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.
Blocks of flats in County Armagh are surveyed as a whole, because the cavity runs across every flat in the building. For commercial buildings in County Armagh, the survey also considers building use and fire requirements before a material is specified.
Building control in Northern Ireland
In Northern Ireland, inserting insulation into an existing cavity wall needs a building control application to your council before the work. We make sure the application route is agreed and confirmed in writing before any drilling starts.
Funding in Northern Ireland
- The Affordable Warmth Scheme, run with the NI Housing Executive, helps owner-occupiers and private tenants with a total gross household income under £23,000; cavity wall insulation is a priority measure where suitable.
- The NI Sustainable Energy Programme funds energy efficiency schemes through participating providers.
- ECO4 does not apply in Northern Ireland.

What is different on commercial jobs
Access is planned around opening hours, often with towers or MEWPs. Material choice takes account of building use and fire requirements, so non-combustible mineral wool is often specified. Work is usually standard-rated for VAT unless the building qualifies for a relief, which we confirm on the quote.
