When it comes to property care, hidden problems are often the most damaging. Issues like damp, failing wall ties, or poorly installed insulation can quietly compromise the structure of your home before any visible signs appear. That’s why at CavClear, we believe surveys are the first and most important step in protecting your property.
Here’s a look at the specialist surveys we offer, and why each one matters.
Cavity Wall Insulation Surveys
Cavity wall insulation is designed to improve energy efficiency, but when it’s poorly installed, or if moisture becomes trapped, it can do more harm than good. Damp insulation can hold moisture against the inner leaf of your wall, causing condensation, mould, and even structural decay.
Our cavity wall insulation surveys use inspection techniques such as borescope cameras and moisture testing to check the condition of insulation inside your walls. If we find problems, we’ll recommend whether removal, replacement, or other remedial work is required.
A cavity wall insulation survey helps to safeguard both your energy performance and your home’s structural health.
Damp Surveys
Damp isn’t just a cosmetic issue, it’s a health and safety concern. From peeling wallpaper and discoloured plaster to musty odours and mould growth, the signs may look small, but the underlying causes can be serious.
At CavClear, our damp surveys are designed to diagnose the exact cause, whether it’s rising damp, penetrating damp, or condensation. We use professional moisture meters, thermal imaging, and years of expertise to provide a clear, evidence-based report.
A damp survey gives you the peace of mind of knowing what’s happening behind the walls, and the confidence that any treatment plan will tackle the root cause, not just the symptoms.
Wall Tie Surveys
Wall ties are the hidden connectors that hold the inner and outer layers of a cavity wall together. When they corrode or fail, the strength of the entire wall is compromised, often showing as cracks, bulges, or movement in brickwork.
Our wall tie surveys follow industry standards, combining metal detection and borescope inspection to locate ties and assess their condition. You’ll receive a detailed report with photographs, grading, and clear recommendations.
Identifying wall tie failure early means avoiding major structural repairs later.
