Cavity wall insulation installation and removal across Newcastle, North Tyneside and the wider Tyneside area. PAS 2030 accredited installers.
Zest Home Insulation provides cavity wall insulation, cavity wall removal and loft insulation across Newcastle upon Tyne, North Tyneside and surrounding areas. We cover the NE1 to NE13 postcode range and neighbouring North Tyneside postcodes.
Newcastle's housing stock is varied — from Victorian terraces to post-war estates — and the right insulation solution depends heavily on the age and construction of your specific property. Our surveyors assess each home individually.
We work on a private-pay basis and through ECO4 government funding for eligible households. Cavity wall extraction is a particular area of demand in Newcastle, where a significant number of properties had insulation installed under 2000s government programmes that has since failed.
Properties in areas like Gosforth, Kenton, West Denton, Blakelaw and Denton Burn are often good candidates for cavity wall insulation. Typical cavities of 50–65mm are well within the treatable range. Survey needed to confirm.
Properties in Jesmond, Heaton, Byker and similar Victorian areas are predominantly solid-wall construction — there is no cavity to fill. Cavity wall insulation is not possible for these properties. Loft insulation and other measures can still help.
Properties in Wallsend, Longbenton, North Tyneside and other areas built between the 1960s and 1980s may have had insulation installed under early government schemes. If you've experienced damp or cold spots since, a borescope survey can identify whether extraction is needed.
For eligible Newcastle properties. Pre-installation survey confirms suitability. EPS bead or mineral wool, 25-year guarantee.
For properties with failed insulation. Borescope survey, full extraction, detailed report. Report can be used for insurance claims or complaints to original installers.
Installed to 270mm minimum depth. Top-up and full installations across all Newcastle property types.

This is a common problem across Tyneside. Contact us to arrange a borescope cavity survey. We'll confirm whether the insulation has failed and whether extraction is needed. Our report can support a claim against the original installer or your insurer. See also: Can cavity wall insulation cause damp?
Almost certainly not. Victorian and Edwardian terraces in those areas are solid brick construction — there is no cavity. Cavity wall insulation is not possible. However, loft insulation is usually beneficial and there are other options such as internal wall insulation if budget allows.
Yes. We cover the full Newcastle/North Tyneside area including Wallsend, Whitley Bay, North Shields, Tynemouth, Longbenton, Forest Hall and surrounding areas.
