Bonded polystyrene bead insulation for Ellesmere Port Town properties
We cover Ellesmere Port Town and the CH65 postcode district, including nearby Chester, Runcorn and Widnes. It is around 6 miles north of Chester.
If a wall in Ellesmere Port Town 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. Where an Ellesmere Port Town property has an extension or a conservatory, we check how the old and new walls meet, because that junction is often missed.
Wind-driven rain is the first thing the surveyor weighs up. Cheshire 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.
For regulations, in Ellesmere Port Town filling a cavity is notifiable building work and needs a building notice or competent-person self-certification.

What to know before you choose beads
Polystyrene is combustible, so beads are not the right choice for every building; height, use and nearby openings matter, and the system certificate sets the limits. PVC-sheathed cables in the cavity should be sleeved or kept out of contact with the beads where the certificate requires it. We check both at survey.
