Repointing and pre-insulation repairs for Burgess Hill properties
Burgess Hill sits in West Sussex, roughly 11 miles south of Crawley. We work across the RH15 district, including nearby Haywards Heath, Crawley and Horsham.
Defects such as failed pointing, leaking gutters and bridged damp-proof courses are listed and priced separately for Burgess Hill properties, so you can choose who fixes them. If your Burgess Hill installation has a guarantee, we check it first; the guarantee route may cover the work.
Exposure matters for every cavity wall. West Sussex 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.
As for paperwork, if cavity wall insulation follows in Burgess Hill, 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.
