Repointing and pre-insulation repairs for Waterlooville properties
If your property is in Waterlooville or the PO7 district or nearby Havant, Portsmouth and Fareham, it is within our Hampshire coverage. It is around 16 miles east of Southampton.
Damp in an insulated Waterlooville home is not always the insulation's fault, so the diagnosis comes before any extraction. We never cold-call in Waterlooville or anywhere else, and we do not work with doorstep claims companies.
Before any material is chosen, exposure is checked. Hampshire 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.
In terms of approvals, if cavity wall insulation follows in Waterlooville, filling a cavity is notifiable building work and needs a building notice or competent-person self-certification.
Rules in England

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.
