Cavity insulation for new builds and extensions for Rhondda properties
Rhondda is among the towns we cover in Mid Glamorgan, alongside Tonypandy, Aberdare and Pontypridd. It is about 12 miles north-east of Bridgend.
Where a Rhondda property has an extension or a conservatory, we check how the old and new walls meet, because that junction is often missed. A suitable wall in Rhondda 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. Parts of Mid Glamorgan 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.
As for paperwork, in Rhondda filling a cavity is notifiable work under the Building Regulations as they apply in Wales, usually self-certified through a competent person scheme.
Funding in Wales
In Wales, Warm Homes Nest offers free improvements to eligible low-income households, and ECO4 runs to 31 December 2026.

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.
