Cavity Wall Insulation in Jordanthorpe

[richpc 10]

I have just had a visit from a British Gas inspector to see if its possible to have cavity wall insulation at my house. I was told by him that its not possible as due to the house design (Half Brick / Half Boarding) there was not enough area to make it worth while. As this would have been done Free of Charge I'm guessing that its funded by some one like the Government or the EEC so surely this isn't 'fair' that there has to be a full house to make it worth while.

 

Has anyone else who lives on Jordanthorpe come across this problem and where they able to get the work done ?

 

Cheers

I know I asked about this sort of thing for my house but apparently the gap inside the wall isn't big enough, I suspect to get the grant there has to be a minimum thickness and area . It was suggested that I could have insulated plasterboard inside the house but that obviously means an awful lot of mucking around and it couldn't be obtained on a grant basis
