Wind-driven rain is the first thing the surveyor weighs up. Much of Hertfordshire sits in the more sheltered driving-rain zones of the UK, which widens the choice of fill. Exposed elevations, coastal sites and high ground still get checked wall by wall.

On compliance, in St Albans filling a cavity is notifiable building work and needs a building notice or competent-person self-certification.
