Cavity insulation for new builds and extensions for Wallington properties
Wallington sits in Greater London, around 10 miles south of London. We work across the SM6 district, including nearby Carshalton, Sutton and South Croydon.
If a wall in Wallington is not suitable, for example because of an undiagnosed damp patch or a very exposed gable, you are told so in writing with the reason. For semi-detached and terraced homes in Wallington, cavity barriers are fitted where your wall meets your neighbour's so the fill stays on your side.
Wind-driven rain is the first thing the surveyor weighs up. Much of Greater London 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 the rules side, in Wallington 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.

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.
