Cavity insulation for new builds and extensions for Caterham properties
We cover Caterham and the CR3 postcode district, including nearby Redhill, Banstead and Reigate. It is around 22 miles east of Guildford.
If a wall in Caterham 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. Most Caterham 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.
Wind-driven rain is the first thing the surveyor weighs up. Much of Surrey 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.
For regulations, in Caterham filling a cavity is notifiable building work and needs a building notice or competent-person self-certification.

What we work from
Your architect's or designer's specification and the energy calculation for the job. We match the product, thickness and fixing to that spec, keep cavities clean as the walls rise, and fit cavity trays, closers and stop ends where shown so the building control inspection goes smoothly.
