The cavity wall is injected with insulating material by drilling holes in the external wall, through the mortar joint. Holes are generally of 22-25mm diameter and are ‘made good’ after injection. Each hole is injected in turn, starting at the bottom.
The drilling process does create some vibration – so it would be wise to remove ornaments, particularly on external walls, for their safety and your peace of mind The Technician will need access to all walls, so he will need to get inside attached garages, lean to sheds, conservatories etc. The insulation can only be really effective if all walls are done. If you have a wall right on the boundary, you may like to mention to your neighbour, that the Technician will need to go onto their property.
The drilling process inevitably creates a little dust, which will be cleared at the completion of thejob. It may be wise to remove vehicles from the drive and things close to the walls. This will alsogive the Technician better access for equipment and tools.
The Technician will fill all the injection holes with mortar to match the existing as closely aspossible. He will use a mix that closely matches the existing colour and texture. On pebbledashfinishes, he will apply pebbles to the surface to match the existing finish. After weathering, the holes are difficult to see. Normally, we will not paint the injection holes. Unfortunately, even if the original paint is used, it may not match due to weathering. So, it may be necessary for you to consider painting the area, after the mortar has dried.
Ventilators supplying combustion air to fuel burning appliances must be safeguarded. Similarly, ventilators at ground level that ventilate below timber floors must be safeguarded. The Technician will investigate them to check they are already sleeved. If they are not, the Technician will remove them and seal around them to stop them being blocked by the insulation. Other vents, which may be redundant, such a cavity vents or vents that used to supply air to open fires in bedrooms maybe closed off. The Technician should discuss these with you. Redundant airbricks may be filled.
Cavity wall insulation normally takes around three hours to install, but the time does depend on the size of the house and other factors, such as access, cavity barriers, fitting corevent… etc.
Our assessors will undertake an assessment of your property to confirm that it is suitable for insulation. It is a full borescope survey by drilling a hole in your wall and checking it with a camera to see it is suitable.
