Bonded polystyrene bead insulation for Irvinestown properties
Irvinestown is among the towns we cover in County Fermanagh, alongside Enniskillen and Lisnaskea. It is about 6 miles north-east of Enniskillen.
If a wall in Irvinestown 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. Irvinestown properties with rendered or painted walls get a closer look at the outer finish, because cracked render can let rain behind it.
Wind-driven rain is the first thing the surveyor weighs up. Parts of County Fermanagh 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.
On compliance, in Irvinestown inserting cavity wall insulation needs a building control application to the council before work starts.

Where bonded beads make sense
Beads behave a little like a liquid as they go in, so they fill narrow and irregular cavities more evenly than fibre. The binder stops them pouring out if a brick is removed later. Some certified bead systems are approved for higher driving-rain exposure than fibre systems, which is why they are common on western and coastal elevations.
