Repointing and pre-insulation repairs for Irvinestown properties
Our County Fermanagh coverage takes in Irvinestown (BT94) and nearby Enniskillen and Lisnaskea. It is around 6 miles north-east of Enniskillen.
Damp in an insulated Irvinestown home is not always the insulation's fault, so the diagnosis comes before any extraction. We never cold-call in Irvinestown or anywhere else, and we do not work with doorstep claims companies.
Every elevation is judged on its own exposure. Parts of County Fermanagh 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.
In terms of approvals, if cavity wall insulation follows in Irvinestown, inserting cavity wall insulation needs a building control application to the council before work starts.

Why repairs come first
Energy Saving Trust advice is to fix brickwork, pointing, roofs, gutters and downpipes before filling. A filled cavity is less forgiving of a wet outer leaf than an empty one, so we price repairs separately and you choose who carries them out.
