Repointing and pre-insulation repairs for Kirkby in Ashfield properties

We never cold-call in Kirkby in Ashfield or anywhere else, and we do not work with doorstep claims companies. Where a Kirkby in Ashfield wall does need work, bricks are lifted and rebuilt in matching mortar, and the cavity is checked with a camera before it is closed up.
Exposure matters for every cavity wall. Much of Nottinghamshire sits in the more sheltered driving-rain zones of the UK, which widens the choice of fill. Exposed elevations, coastal sites and high ground still get checked wall by wall.
As for paperwork, if cavity wall insulation follows in Kirkby in Ashfield, 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.
