Cavity wall insulation for flats for Antrim properties
Our County Antrim coverage takes in Antrim (BT41) and nearby Ballymena, Newtownabbey and Belfast. It is about 16 miles north-west of Belfast.
For landlords and managing agents in Antrim, we survey in batches and return a result sheet and fixed price per address. For commercial buildings in Antrim, the survey also considers building use and fire requirements before a material is specified.
Exposure matters for every cavity wall. Parts of County Antrim 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 the rules side, in Antrim inserting cavity wall insulation needs a building control application to the council before work starts.

Why one flat cannot usually be done alone
The cavity runs continuously across the building. The Energy Saving Trust notes that flats need agreement from the whole block. Filling one flat's walls in isolation leaves gaps, and the freeholder normally owns the structure.
