Cavity wall insulation removal in Holbeach

Cavity wall insulation was meant to go in once and be forgotten. When it was badly installed, or has got wet over the years, it does the opposite of its job: the fill slumps, bridges the cavity, and carries damp straight across to the inside face of the wall. If you have damp patches or cold spots that redecorating never quite cures, the cavity is worth a proper look.

How failed fill shows itself

• Damp patches on inside walls that come back after every redecoration
• Cold spots on some walls while the rest of the room stays warm
• Problems worst on the side of the house that takes the driving rain
• A survey raising the cavity fill when the house is sold or remortgaged

What removal involves

Removal deals with the cause, not the stains on the plaster. The fill is drilled out and extracted from the cavity, and the wall is left with what it was designed to have in the first place: a clear gap keeping the outer skin and the inner skin properly apart. Once the wet material is out, the cavity can do its job again.

Cavity-era houses around Holbeach

The bungalows and estate houses around Holbeach are the age this affects most: built in the cavity wall era, with many filled with blown insulation years later. Plenty are now selling on, and a buyer's survey that questions the state of the fill can slow a sale as surely as any roof fault. Holbeach is the heart of our patch, so having us round to look is quick to arrange and costs you nothing.
