Repointing and pre-insulation repairs for Wallasey properties
If your property is in Wallasey or the CH45 district or nearby Birkenhead, Bootle and Liverpool, it is within our Merseyside coverage. It is roughly 4 miles west of Liverpool.
Damp in an insulated Wallasey home is not always the insulation's fault, so the diagnosis comes before any extraction. We never cold-call in Wallasey or anywhere else, and we do not work with doorstep claims companies.
Every elevation is judged on its own exposure. Merseyside 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 compliance, if cavity wall insulation follows in Wallasey, filling a cavity is notifiable building work and needs a building notice or competent-person self-certification.
Rules in England
Filling a cavity is notifiable building work and needs a building notice or competent-person self-certification if insulation work follows.

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.
