Blown mineral wool insulation for Lurgan properties
We cover Lurgan and the BT66 postcode district, including nearby Craigavon, Portadown and Armagh. It is roughly 2 miles east of Craigavon.
A suitable wall in Lurgan is usually filled in a single day from outside, with drill holes made good to match the pointing. If a wall in Lurgan is not suitable, for example because of an undiagnosed damp patch or a very exposed gable, you are told so in writing with the reason.
Wind-driven rain is the first thing the surveyor weighs up. Parts of County Armagh 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.
On compliance, in Lurgan inserting cavity wall insulation needs a building control application to the council before work starts.

When is it not the right choice?
Very narrow or uneven cavities, walls with lots of mortar snots and debris, and some very exposed elevations can be better suited to bonded bead, which flows around obstructions and is certified for a wider range of exposure zones in some systems. The survey says which and why.
