Cavity wall insulation for flats for Caerphilly properties
Our Gwent coverage takes in Caerphilly (CF83) and nearby Risca, Newport and Cwmbran. It is around 9 miles west of Newport.
Per-address photo records for Caerphilly properties make compliance files and EPC updates straightforward. Blocks of flats in Caerphilly are surveyed as a whole, because the cavity runs across every flat in the building.
Wind-driven rain is the first thing the surveyor weighs up. Parts of Gwent 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 Caerphilly filling a cavity is notifiable work under the Building Regulations as they apply in Wales, usually self-certified through a competent person scheme.
Funding in Wales
In Wales, Warm Homes Nest offers free improvements to eligible low-income households, and ECO4 runs to 31 December 2026.
Sources: Welsh Government: warmer and more energy efficient homes (July 2026); GOV.UK: extending the ECO4 end date, government response.
Fire and height
For blocks, the material must suit the building's height and use. Non-combustible mineral wool is the usual choice; we confirm the system and its certificate limits in writing.
