Small measures like this are often among the cheapest per pound saved, and they suit Newton Mearns homes of every age. We check ventilation as carefully as insulation in Newton Mearns homes, because both matter for keeping a house dry.
On compliance, if cavity wall insulation follows in Newton Mearns, no building warrant is needed for insulation within a wall, but the work must meet the building standards.

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.
