Social housing and estate programmes for Melton Mowbray properties
Melton Mowbray sits in Leicestershire, around 14 miles north-east of Leicester. We work across the LE13 district, including nearby Loughborough, Leicester and Oadby.
Blocks of flats in Melton Mowbray are surveyed as a whole, because the cavity runs across every flat in the building. Work on Melton Mowbray rented homes and blocks is booked around tenants and residents, with access arranged through your agent if you prefer.
Wind-driven rain is the first thing the surveyor weighs up. Much of Leicestershire sits in the more sheltered driving-rain zones of the UK, which widens the choice of fill. Exposed elevations, coastal sites and high ground still get checked wall by wall.
On the rules side, in Melton Mowbray 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.

Quality after ECO
The National Audit Office's October 2025 report found serious failings in some government-funded installs. We work survey-first, record every stage, and name the installer and guarantee on each order.
