Hi all,
I need some advice please. My house was built 1977/ 78, outer brick with internal block, no insulation, total wall width 12.5" approx. I'm thinking of having the cavity walls pumped with beads, but after researching online I've found a lot of negative advice and reports of mould problems from UK newspapers and BBC, though dated 5 to 6 years back. I'm wondering if the problems have been rectified. Bead insulation seems to be very popular in Ireland. Is it suitable for a brick house? I had internal walls drylined a few years back, slight improvement, heard the beads are much more effective. Attic is well insulated. Thanks.
