Bonded polystyrene bead insulation for Thornton-Cleveleys properties
We cover Thornton-Cleveleys and the FY5 postcode district, including nearby Fleetwood, Blackpool and Lytham St Annes. It is roughly 15 miles north-west of Preston.
Most Thornton-Cleveleys 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. A suitable wall in Thornton-Cleveleys is usually filled in a single day from outside, with drill holes made good to match the pointing.
Exposure matters for every cavity wall. Parts of Lancashire 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 Thornton-Cleveleys 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.
