Damp investigation after cavity insulation for Armagh properties
If your property is in Armagh or the BT61 district or nearby Portadown, Craigavon and Lurgan, it is within our County Armagh coverage. It is around 11 miles south-west of Craigavon.
Where an Armagh wall does need work, bricks are lifted and rebuilt in matching mortar, and the cavity is checked with a camera before it is closed up. We never cold-call in Armagh or anywhere else, and we do not work with doorstep claims companies.
Before any material is chosen, exposure is checked. 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.
On the rules side, if cavity wall insulation follows in Armagh, inserting cavity wall insulation needs a building control application to the council before work starts.
