Blown mineral wool insulation for Hereford properties
Hereford is among the towns we cover in Herefordshire, alongside Ledbury, Ross-on-Wye and Leominster. Hereford is one of the main towns we cover in Herefordshire.
Most Hereford 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. For semi-detached and terraced homes in Hereford, cavity barriers are fitted where your wall meets your neighbour's so the fill stays on your side.
Before any material is chosen, exposure is checked. Herefordshire 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, in Hereford 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.
