About 6 years ago, I had wall insulation put in by Millfold as part of a Warm Front scheme, which meant it was a reduced cost.
I have never felt ANY benefit of this work since and seem to suffer patches of black mould where the ceiling meets the wall, possibly due to Millfold sealing all the external airbricks.
I don't believe that the insulation was correctly applied, which I took up with them at the time and received a further discount with their insistence that the job was done to specification. The job was supposed to take 10 bags, yet they left with 5 still on the wagon. They also left a hell of a mess which I had to clear up, rockwool everywhere.
Each time I can see into the cavity, such as sinking in new sockets, I can barely see any trace of the insulation, just a few wisps like a spiders web.
British Gas are offering an insulation check, whereby they use a resonance device that tells them the density of the insulation. I'm going to book up a check, but is there any benefit to having wall insulation done as many people on the web say 'don't bother'.
I'm wondering if they have all been the subject of the practice of 'pretending' to fill the walls or is there anyone that has noticed a benefit?
