Cavity insulation for new builds and extensions for Bideford properties
Our Devon coverage takes in Bideford (EX39) and nearby Barnstaple, Tiverton and Exeter. It is roughly 36 miles north-west of Exeter.
Bideford properties with rendered or painted walls get a closer look at the outer finish, because cracked render can let rain behind it. A suitable wall in Bideford is usually filled in a single day from outside, with drill holes made good to match the pointing.
Every elevation is judged on its own exposure. Parts of Devon 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.
In terms of approvals, in Bideford filling a cavity is notifiable building work and needs a building notice or competent-person self-certification.

What we work from
Your architect's or designer's specification and the energy calculation for the job. We match the product, thickness and fixing to that spec, keep cavities clean as the walls rise, and fit cavity trays, closers and stop ends where shown so the building control inspection goes smoothly.
