Cavity wall extraction is a process used to remove cavity walls, such as those found in older buildings. It requires specialised equipment and expertise to safely extract cavity walls from the structure without damaging them or compromising the building’s integrity. The process involves drilling into the cavity wall to loosen it before extracting it with a lifting device. Once the cavity wall is removed, the cavity must be sealed using a range of materials to prevent further damage or moisture ingress.

Cavity wall extraction is a cost-effective way to improve the energy efficiency of buildings, reducing their energy consumption and carbon footprint. It can also help increase the structural stability of a building by improving its insulation performance. Finally, cavity wall extraction can increase interior space as it maximises natural light and ventilation. In summary, cavity wall extraction is a versatile and cost-effective solution for improving the energy efficiency of buildings while also increasing their structural stability and interior space.
