Pre-Extraction and Cavity Cleaning Survey

by Sean Glossop, from the Community

10+

Use this structured survey to assess failed cavity wall insulation prior to extraction and cleaning. Record client and property details (type, age, floors, bedrooms, heating), external finishes and structural condition, internal damp and mould indicators, ventilation and fans, access needs, and remedial works. Capture cavity depths and omitted areas by elevation, add boroscope photos and drawings, and document materials present for removal. Include chimneys and flues locations, adjoining property status, risk controls, and a dynamic risk assessment and client declaration. Designed for Low Carbon Exchange Ltd and housing providers managing retrofit and insulation remediation.

Cavity Wall Pre-extraction and Cleaning Survey
This pre-extraction and cavity cleaning survey template supports inspections of failed cavity wall insulation prior to removal. It captures client and property details, construction age and type, heating and secondary heat sources, external finishes and condition, and any remedial works required. Inspectors can document internal issues such as damp or mould, ventilation and mechanical fans, air vents needing sleeving, adjoining insulation, omitted areas, and average cavity depths. The form covers materials to be extracted (fibre, foam, rockwool, polystyrene bead, debris), elevation photos and boroscope checks, and summary findings with reasons for extraction. It also includes a dynamic risk assessment and client declaration to support safe, compliant operations.

Cavity Wall and Loft Insulation Survey
Use this comprehensive survey template to investigate failed cavity wall insulation and assess loft insulation across domestic properties. It covers client inspection, pre-extraction, post-extraction, and revisit checks, with structured fields for tenure, property type and age, external finishes, structural condition, cavity depths, boroscope photos, and wall tie condition. Record internal damp, mould, condensation, ventilation, heating types, and safety monitors. Capture access constraints and remedial works, verify vents, flues, and guttering, and document asbestos confirmations. Includes a loft survey section and a dynamic risk assessment checklist.

Post Extraction and Cavity Wall Survey Checklist
This template supports post extraction audits and cavity wall survey work for residential and commercial buildings. It captures address and tenure details, property type, age, and floor construction, then assesses exterior finishes and structural condition. It verifies heating appliances, flues, chimneys, ventilation, and safety monitors, and records internal inspections for damp, mould, and condensation. For cavity wall insulation, it documents scheme type, materials, vents, adjoining properties, and requirements under PAS 2035. It includes elevation photos, DPC measurements, cavity depth checks, borescope evidence, dynamic risk assessment, and installation checks to confirm readiness for reinstallation and compliance.

Post Extraction and Cavity Wall Survey PAS 2035
Use this checklist to survey cavity walls after insulation extraction and assess suitability for reinstallation in line with PAS 2035. Capture site and property details, tenure and construction, external finishes and structural condition. Record heating appliances, flue and chimney locations, and verify alarms. Document access and equipment needs. Perform post extraction inspections with borescope images, check wall ties, cavity cleanliness, vents, and finish repairs. Include internal checks for damp and condensation, ventilation requirements, and loft inspection. Measure cavity depths by elevation and log photos. Complete a dynamic risk assessment and client declaration. Finalize with installation checks and signatures.
