Party wall cavity insulation for Cowes properties
If your property is in Cowes or the PO31 district or nearby Ryde and Sandown, it is within our Isle of Wight coverage. It is about 6 miles west of Ryde.
Cowes properties with rendered or painted walls get a closer look at the outer finish, because cracked render can let rain behind it. For semi-detached and terraced homes in Cowes, cavity barriers are fitted where your wall meets your neighbour's so the fill stays on your side.
Before any material is chosen, exposure is checked. The Isle of Wight 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 the rules side, in Cowes filling a cavity is notifiable building work and needs a building notice or competent-person self-certification.

What we need from you and your neighbour
The cavity is shared, so we talk you through notifying your neighbour before work. Filling is done from your side, usually through the loft. The survey confirms the wall is a cavity wall and not solid masonry, and checks for cables, flues and any gaps that would let fill escape.
What is included in Cowes
