Cavity insulation for new builds and extensions for Melton Mowbray properties
If your property is in Melton Mowbray or the LE13 district or nearby Loughborough, Leicester and Oadby, it is within our Leicestershire coverage. It is about 14 miles north-east of Leicester.
Most Melton Mowbray houses built from the 1920s onwards have cavity walls, but the survey still checks each one: cavity width, debris, the condition of the brickwork and how exposed each wall is. For semi-detached and terraced homes in Melton Mowbray, cavity barriers are fitted where your wall meets your neighbour's so the fill stays on your side.
Exposure matters for every cavity wall. Much of Leicestershire 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 Melton Mowbray 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.
