Social housing and estate programmes for Merthyr Tydfil properties
Our Mid Glamorgan coverage takes in Merthyr Tydfil (CF47) and nearby Aberdare, Rhondda and Tonypandy. It is about 19 miles north-east of Bridgend.
Blocks of flats in Merthyr Tydfil are surveyed as a whole, because the cavity runs across every flat in the building. For landlords and managing agents in Merthyr Tydfil, 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. Parts of Mid Glamorgan 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.
As for paperwork, in Merthyr Tydfil filling a cavity is notifiable work under the Building Regulations as they apply in Wales, usually self-certified through a competent person scheme.
