Damp investigation after cavity insulation for Grangemouth properties
Our Forth Valley coverage takes in Grangemouth (FK3) and nearby Falkirk, Alloa and Stirling. It is about 2 miles east of Falkirk.
If your Grangemouth installation has a guarantee, we check it first; the guarantee route may cover the work. We never cold-call in Grangemouth or anywhere else, and we do not work with doorstep claims companies.
Local weather affects which walls can be filled. The Forth Valley 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.
On the rules side, if cavity wall insulation follows in Grangemouth, no building warrant is needed for insulation within a wall, but the work must meet the building standards.
