Thermal imaging survey for Romford properties
We cover Romford and the RM1 postcode district, including nearby Hornchurch, Dagenham and Becontree. It is about 14 miles east of London.
Buyers and sellers in Romford often book this check when a survey report or EPC raises questions about the walls. The written result for your Romford property is plain English: what we found, what it means and what, if anything, to do next.
Exposure matters for every cavity wall. Much of Greater London 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.
In terms of approvals, if cavity wall insulation follows in Romford, 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.
