Loft insulation for Aberdare properties
Our Mid Glamorgan coverage takes in Aberdare (CF44) and nearby Rhondda, Merthyr Tydfil and Tonypandy. It is around 16 miles north of Bridgend.
Where an Aberdare home also has empty cavity walls, we can survey those at the same time. Small measures like this are often among the cheapest per pound saved, and they suit Aberdare homes of every age.
As for paperwork, if cavity wall insulation follows in Aberdare, filling a cavity is notifiable work under the Building Regulations as they apply in Wales, usually self-certified through a competent person scheme.
