Social housing and estate programmes for Christchurch properties
Christchurch sits in Dorset, roughly 4 miles east of Bournemouth. We work across the BH6 district, including nearby Bournemouth and Poole.
Blocks of flats in Christchurch are surveyed as a whole, because the cavity runs across every flat in the building. For landlords and managing agents in Christchurch, we survey in batches and return a result sheet and fixed price per address.
Wind-driven rain is the first thing the surveyor weighs up. Dorset 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 Christchurch filling a cavity is notifiable building work and needs a building notice or competent-person self-certification.
Funding in England
In England, ECO4 runs to 31 December 2026 and Warm Homes: Local Grant supports low-income households through councils.
