Is cavity wall insulation a good idea, a question im often asked. Well, provided you ensure the cavity is clean, you don't have any pre-existing problems with damp, you're not located near the coast, you're built upon sound free draining ground, you maintain your property free from leaks and defects and the insulation is installed properly you have much less chance of problems occurring with full-fill retrofit cavity wall insulation.
This short video however demonstrates exactly what happens to the insulation in an escape of water event. An escape of water event can cause significant damage to an insulated property if undiscovered. Sometimes the damage isn't always obvious and materials hidden within the cavities of construction can also be affected which may hinder the ability to dry and restore effectively if not accurately examined.
