Damp investigation after cavity insulation for Bexhill-on-Sea properties
Bexhill-on-Sea sits in East Sussex, about 27 miles east of Brighton. We work across the TN40 district, including nearby Hastings, Hailsham and Eastbourne.
If your Bexhill-on-Sea installation has a guarantee, we check it first; the guarantee route may cover the work. Where a Bexhill-on-Sea 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.
Exposure matters for every cavity wall. East Sussex has a mix of moderate and more exposed sites. Hilltop, coastal and west-facing walls take the brunt of wind-driven rain, so the survey records exposure for each elevation before a material is chosen.
In terms of approvals, if cavity wall insulation follows in Bexhill-on-Sea, filling a cavity is notifiable building work and needs a building notice or competent-person self-certification.
Rules in England
