Blown mineral wool insulation for Wigston Magna properties
If your property is in Wigston Magna or the LE18 district or nearby Oadby, Leicester and Hinckley, it is within our Leicestershire coverage. It is roughly 4 miles south-east of Leicester.
Most Wigston Magna 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 Wigston Magna 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. Much of Leicestershire 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.
On compliance, in Wigston Magna filling a cavity is notifiable building work and needs a building notice or competent-person self-certification.

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.
