What we look for in Chatham
Surveys in Chatham also cover the surrounding ME4 district and towns such as Rochester and Gillingham. It's roughly 8 miles from Chatham to Maidstone, the largest town in Kent. Homes across the South East range from inter-war semis and post-war estates, which are mostly cavity-walled, to older solid-walled cottages and Victorian town terraces.
Much of Kent sits in the lower wind-driven rain exposure bands, which keeps the choice of finishes wide — though hilltop, coastal and exposed gable walls can still need a tougher specification, so we check the actual site.
We plan internal insulation in Chatham homes room by room so you keep the rest of the house usable.

Approvals in England
Planning isn't usually involved with internal insulation. Building control is, once more than half of a wall is treated, and listed buildings need listed building consent.
What are the options for internal insulation?
- Insulated plasterboard — PIR or phenolic foam bonded to plasterboard, fixed to the wall and skimmed. Thinnest option.
- Insulated stud wall — a timber or metal frame filled with insulation, with a vapour control layer and plasterboard. Takes more space but runs services easily.
- Wood fibre and lime — breathable boards finished in lime plaster, for older walls that need to manage moisture.

Internal wall insulation in Chatham: questions
Is internal insulation cheaper than external?
Per m² usually yes, but the cost of moving fittings and redecorating narrows the gap on whole-house jobs.
Can I stay in the house?
Yes, but each room is out of use while it's worked on, typically 3–5 days.
What happens to my radiators and sockets?
They're taken off and refitted on the new wall face. Electrical work is done by a qualified electrician.
Do you cover Chatham?
Yes — we survey and quote internal wall insulation in Chatham (ME4) and nearby Rochester, Gillingham and Strood, with a fixed written price before any work starts.
