Draught-proofing for Livingston properties
Livingston sits in Lothian. We work across the EH54 district, including nearby Bathgate, Dalkeith and Musselburgh.
Small measures like this are often among the cheapest per pound saved, and they suit Livingston homes of every age. We check ventilation as carefully as insulation in Livingston homes, because both matter for keeping a house dry.
In terms of approvals, if cavity wall insulation follows in Livingston, no building warrant is needed for insulation within a wall, but the work must meet the building standards.

Ventilation still matters
Trickle vents, air bricks and extractor fans are there for a reason. We seal accidental gaps, not the ventilation your home needs to keep condensation down.
