Blown mineral wool insulation for Bexhill-on-Sea properties
Bexhill-on-Sea is among the towns we cover in East Sussex, alongside Hastings, Hailsham and Eastbourne. It is around 27 miles east of Brighton.
Most Bexhill-on-Sea houses built from the 1920s onwards have cavity walls, but the survey still checks each one: cavity width, debris, the condition of the brickwork and how exposed each wall is. A suitable wall in Bexhill-on-Sea is usually filled in a single day from outside, with drill holes made good to match the pointing.
Wind-driven rain is the first thing the surveyor weighs up. East 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.
In terms of approvals, in Bexhill-on-Sea filling a cavity is notifiable building work and needs a building notice or competent-person self-certification.

Why choose mineral wool?
Mineral wool fibres are treated to shed water, so moisture that gets into the outer leaf runs down the cavity rather than tracking across. It is classed as non-combustible, which matters for some flats and taller buildings, and it is usually the lower-cost certified option.
