Cavity insulation for new builds and extensions for Whitley Bay properties
If your property is in Whitley Bay or the NE26 district or nearby North Shields, Tynemouth and South Shields, it is within our Tyne and Wear coverage. It is about 8 miles north-east of Newcastle upon Tyne.
Most Whitley Bay 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. Where a Whitley Bay property has an extension or a conservatory, we check how the old and new walls meet, because that junction is often missed.
Exposure matters for every cavity wall. Tyne and Wear has a mix of moderate and more exposed sites. Hilltop, coastal and west-facing walls take the brunt of wind-driven rain, so the survey records exposure for each elevation before a material is chosen.
On compliance, in Whitley Bay 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.
