Damp investigation after cavity insulation for Pontypridd properties
We cover Pontypridd and the CF37 postcode district, including nearby Tonypandy, Rhondda and Aberdare. It is about 12 miles north-east of Bridgend.
If your Pontypridd installation has a guarantee, we check it first; the guarantee route may cover the work. Damp in an insulated Pontypridd home is not always the insulation's fault, so the diagnosis comes before any extraction.
Every elevation is judged on its own exposure. 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.
On compliance, if cavity wall insulation follows in Pontypridd, filling a cavity is notifiable work under the Building Regulations as they apply in Wales, usually self-certified through a competent person scheme.
