Cavity wall insulation for flats for Kelso properties
If your property is in Kelso or the TD5 district or nearby Galashiels and Hawick, it is within our Scottish Borders coverage. It is about 16 miles east of Galashiels.
Per-address photo records for Kelso properties make compliance files and EPC updates straightforward. Work on Kelso rented homes and blocks is booked around tenants and residents, with access arranged through your agent if you prefer.
Local weather affects which walls can be filled. The Scottish Borders has a mix of moderate and more exposed sites. Hilltop, coastal and west-facing walls take the brunt of wind-driven rain, so the survey records exposure for each elevation before a material is chosen.
On the rules side, in Kelso no building warrant is needed for insulation within a wall, but the work must meet the building standards.
Funding in Scotland
In Scotland, Home Energy Scotland is the route to the Home Energy Scotland Grant and Loan and Warmer Homes Scotland.

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.
