Caveat for External Wall Insulation
- This would be classed as an improvement to the original construction of the home. The landlord is not legally required to carry out any improvements or bring up to current standards unless an element is defective to the extent that it requires complete replacement or minimum energy performance standards for the home are not met. The design and specification of any recommended improvement works should be determined following further investigation to confirm its suitability.
-
Does the existing pattern of wall tie conform to current standards
-
Is there any evidence of corrosion
-
Are any other works being completed to enhance/improve or affect the structure of the building
-
Will remedial wall ties be required before further works are completed
-
Statement
- It is advised due to current spacing of wall ties that remedial wall ties are installed to bring the building up to current standards

-
I have assessed the conditions on site ensuring there is adequate ventilation and no evidence of damp or excessive condensation issues unless otherwise stated previously within the survey report. There are no additional significant hazards observed that are not addressed in the generic risk assessment for the work to be undertaken.
