Thermal imaging survey for March properties
We cover March and the PE15 postcode district, including nearby Wisbech, Ely and Peterborough. It is about 24 miles north of Cambridge.
A survey in March gives you facts before anyone drills: what the wall is, what is in the cavity and whether it is sound. Every inspection point in March is photographed and logged, so you have a record to show a buyer, lender or contractor.
Exposure matters for every cavity wall. Much of Cambridgeshire 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.
As for paperwork, if cavity wall insulation follows in March, filling a cavity is notifiable building work and needs a building notice or competent-person self-certification.
Rules in England
Filling a cavity is notifiable building work and needs a building notice or competent-person self-certification if insulation work follows.
