Over 6 million properties in the UK have had cavity wall insulation installed. Of course, this is an excellent energy efficiency measure – however there are a lot of homes in the UK that have been fitted with cavity wall insulation where the property is in fact not suitable, and as such, is causing problems in the property such as damp.
Unfortunately, there have been a number of bad practices employed in the industry by unqualified tradesmen including incorrect materials being used, too much of a gap being left between the insulation and the space that surrounds it and debris being left within the cavity.
