Cavity Wall Insulation Removal & Cleaning

Safe extraction of failed cavity wall insulation and debris, tackling the damp problems it can cause without damaging your brickwork.

When cavity wall insulation goes wrong

Cavity wall insulation can work well, but when it is unsuitable for the property, poorly installed or becomes wet, it can bridge the cavity and allow moisture to pass through to the inside of the house.

Cavity wall insulation also has a lifespan. Over time it can become saturated from water ingress or condensation, and debris can build up in the cavity. Left untouched, this can push up heating bills and lead to damage and bigger repair bills.

Using specialist equipment, we remove the insulation and debris to restore a clear, dry cavity, working quickly and efficiently with minimal disruption to you and your home.

Signs your cavity needs attention

Damp that appeared after insulation was installed

Rooms that feel colder than they should

Rising heating bills

How we work

1. Inspection

We inspect the cavity to confirm the type and condition of the insulation and look for debris.

2. Access

Bricks are carefully removed at intervals to give access to the cavity.

3. Extraction

Insulation and debris are extracted using industry leading equipment, without causing further damage to the brickwork.

4. Reinstate

Bricks are replaced and pointed to match, leaving a clean cavity and a tidy finish.

Frequently asked questions

Can all types of cavity insulation be removed?

Most common types, including fibre and bead insulation, can be extracted. We will confirm what is in your walls during the inspection.

Will removing insulation make my home colder?

A wet, failed insulation performs poorly anyway. Once the cavity is clean and dry, we can advise on whether re-insulating is suitable for your property.

Is there much mess?

The work is carried out from outside, and we keep the site tidy throughout.
