Cavity wall insulation for flats across County Londonderry

We cover 4 towns in County Londonderry: Derry, Coleraine, Limavady and Magherafelt.

Exposure matters for every cavity wall. Parts of County Londonderry 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.

Work on County Londonderry rented homes and blocks is booked around tenants and residents, with access arranged through your agent if you prefer. Blocks of flats in County Londonderry are surveyed as a whole, because the cavity runs across every flat in the building.

Building control in Northern Ireland

In Northern Ireland, inserting insulation into an existing cavity wall needs a building control application to your council before the work. We make sure the application route is agreed and confirmed in writing before any drilling starts.

Funding in Northern Ireland

  • The Affordable Warmth Scheme, run with the NI Housing Executive, helps owner-occupiers and private tenants with a total gross household income under £23,000; cavity wall insulation is a priority measure where suitable.
  • The NI Sustainable Energy Programme funds energy efficiency schemes through participating providers.
  • ECO4 does not apply in Northern Ireland.

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.
