Damp investigation after cavity insulation for Bridgend properties
If your property is in Bridgend or the CF31 district or nearby Maesteg, Tonypandy and Rhondda, it is within our Mid Glamorgan coverage. Bridgend is one of the main towns we cover in Mid Glamorgan.
Damp in an insulated Bridgend home is not always the insulation's fault, so the diagnosis comes before any extraction. We never cold-call in Bridgend or anywhere else, and we do not work with doorstep claims companies.
Local weather affects which walls can be filled. 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.
For regulations, if cavity wall insulation follows in Bridgend, filling a cavity is notifiable work under the Building Regulations as they apply in Wales, usually self-certified through a competent person scheme.
