Damp investigation after cavity insulation for Cannock properties
If your property is in Cannock or the WS11 district or nearby Burntwood, Rugeley and Lichfield, it is within our Staffordshire coverage. It is about 22 miles south of Stoke-on-Trent.
If your Cannock installation has a guarantee, we check it first; the guarantee route may cover the work. We never cold-call in Cannock or anywhere else, and we do not work with doorstep claims companies.
Every elevation is judged on its own exposure. Staffordshire 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 Cannock, filling a cavity is notifiable building work and needs a building notice or competent-person self-certification.
Rules in England
