Cavity insulation for new builds and extensions for Cheshunt properties
Cheshunt sits in Hertfordshire, about 14 miles east of St Albans. We work across the EN8 district, including nearby Hoddesdon, Potters Bar and Hertford.
For semi-detached and terraced homes in Cheshunt, cavity barriers are fitted where your wall meets your neighbour's so the fill stays on your side. A suitable wall in Cheshunt is usually filled in a single day from outside, with drill holes made good to match the pointing.
Local weather affects which walls can be filled. Much of Hertfordshire 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.
In terms of approvals, in Cheshunt 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.
