Information, not a remote diagnosis
Website content is general UK homeowner information. Buildings, defects and legal circumstances differ. Nothing on this site is a structural survey, specification, valuation, legal opinion or substitute for inspection by an appropriately competent person.
Safety and urgent defects
Do not disturb masonry, drill walls, open cavities or work at height based on this site. Keep away from bulging, loose or falling masonry and seek urgent professional assistance. If water affects electrical equipment, use an appropriate emergency service or qualified electrician.
Independent specialists
Cavity Wall Advice is an advice and lead-introduction service. A participating specialist may pay an introduction fee. Specialists are independent businesses responsible for their own inspections, advice, quotations, terms, insurance and work. An introduction is not an endorsement or guarantee of outcome. Verify suitability before instruction.
Mortgage and transaction decisions
Only a lender and its appointed valuer can decide what evidence they will accept. We cannot guarantee a valuation, mortgage offer, release of retention, sale or completion date. Confirm requirements before commissioning a report or repair.
Sources and changing information
We link to sources and date reviews, but external guidance, scheme rules and organisations can change. Check the linked original for the current position. Prices are property-specific and no example should be treated as a quotation.
Use of the website
Use the site lawfully and do not upload malicious files or personal data you are not authorised to share. These terms are governed by the laws applicable in England and Wales, subject to mandatory consumer protections in your part of the UK.
