Cavity insulation for new builds and extensions for Kirkintilloch properties
Kirkintilloch is among the towns we cover in Dunbartonshire, alongside Bishopbriggs, Bearsden and Clydebank. It is roughly 10 miles east of Clydebank.
A suitable wall in Kirkintilloch is usually filled in a single day from outside, with drill holes made good to match the pointing. Kirkintilloch properties with rendered or painted walls get a closer look at the outer finish, because cracked render can let rain behind it.
Exposure matters for every cavity wall. Parts of Dunbartonshire 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.
For regulations, in Kirkintilloch no building warrant is needed for insulation within a wall, but the work must meet the building standards.

Extensions that join an older house
Where an extension meets an existing cavity wall, the junction is a weak point. We can borescope and fill the existing wall at the same time so the old and new walls perform together.
