Blown mineral wool insulation for Caterham properties
Our Surrey coverage takes in Caterham (CR3) and nearby Redhill, Banstead and Reigate. It is around 22 miles east of Guildford.
For semi-detached and terraced homes in Caterham, cavity barriers are fitted where your wall meets your neighbour's so the fill stays on your side. Where a Caterham property has an extension or a conservatory, we check how the old and new walls meet, because that junction is often missed.
Before any material is chosen, exposure is checked. Much of Surrey 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.
For regulations, in Caterham filling a cavity is notifiable building work and needs a building notice or competent-person self-certification.
Funding in England
In England, ECO4 runs to 31 December 2026 and Warm Homes: Local Grant supports low-income households through councils.

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.
