Teesside has a large stock of post-war and interwar housing — semis and terraces built during the industrial expansion of the twentieth century. Many are well-suited to cavity wall insulation. However, coastal properties in Redcar, Hartlepool and Seaton Carew can be subject to higher driving rain exposure, which affects suitability and material choice.
We work privately and through ECO4 funding. We assess each property individually — particularly important in this region where coastal exposure varies considerably from one street to the next.
Properties in coastal locations on Teesside — particularly Redcar, Hartlepool, Seaton Carew and Saltburn — are subject to higher wind-driven rain than inland areas. This affects cavity wall insulation suitability.
In higher-exposure zones, mineral wool insulation can absorb moisture and fail, causing the very damp problems it was meant to prevent. EPS bead insulation is generally more resistant to moisture and often preferred in these locations.
Our surveyors assess exposure rating for every property before any recommendation. We won't install insulation in a property where the exposure risk makes failure likely.
Already have insulation and experiencing problems?
Many Teesside coastal and semi-coastal properties had mineral wool or blown fibre insulation installed under 2000s government schemes that was inappropriate for their exposure rating. If you've had damp or mould since insulation was installed, a borescope survey will confirm the cause.
For eligible Teesside properties. Material choice takes into account exposure rating — particularly important for coastal and semi-coastal locations.

Learn more →Installed to 270mm minimum across all Teesside property types. Most homes — including coastal properties — benefit significantly from proper loft insulation.
Learn more →Coastal properties require careful assessment. It depends on the property's age, orientation, condition of external brickwork and distance from the sea. We'll survey the property and give you an honest recommendation. Some coastal properties are suitable — using the right material is the key factor.
Quite possibly. Coastal areas are particularly prone to CWI failure when properties were not correctly assessed for exposure. A borescope survey will confirm whether failed insulation is the cause. Read more: Can cavity wall insulation cause damp?
