Wall tie replacement for Faversham properties
If your property is in Faversham or the ME13 district or nearby Whitstable, Sittingbourne and Canterbury, it is within our Kent coverage. It is around 16 miles east of Maidstone.
We never cold-call in Faversham or anywhere else, and we do not work with doorstep claims companies. Damp in an insulated Faversham home is not always the insulation's fault, so the diagnosis comes before any extraction.
Local weather affects which walls can be filled. Much of Kent 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 Faversham, 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.

Ties and cavity insulation
Ties should be checked before a cavity is filled. Fitting remedial ties does not normally stop a cavity being insulated later, and we can do both in one visit. Where cracking suggests movement, we recommend a structural engineer's view first.
What is included in Faversham
