Underfloor insulation across Gloucestershire
We cover 8 towns in Gloucestershire, including Gloucester, Cheltenham, Stroud, Kingswood, Mangotsfield and more.
We check ventilation as carefully as insulation in Gloucestershire homes, because both matter for keeping a house dry. Small measures like this are often among the cheapest per pound saved, and they suit Gloucestershire homes of every age.
Building Regulations in England
Filling an existing cavity wall is notifiable building work in England. Either a building notice goes to building control before the work, or the installer self-certifies it through a government-approved competent person scheme such as CIGA's CWISC scheme. The insulation used must also be suitable for the wall it goes into, which is why the survey checks construction, condition and exposure first.
Funding in England
- ECO4, the energy-supplier scheme, has been extended to 31 December 2026 and government has said there will be no successor supplier obligation.
- The Great British Insulation Scheme closed as planned on 31 March 2026.
- Warm Homes: Local Grant supports low-income households in England through councils, and the January 2026 Warm Homes Plan sets out fully funded upgrades for low-income homes, with more detail still being published.

Keeping the void ventilated
Air bricks under a suspended floor must stay clear so the timbers stay dry. Insulation goes between the joists, not across the void, and gaps at skirtings are sealed to stop draughts.
What is included
- Floor void inspection
- Insulation between joists
