Hi all,
Having just about survived the winter in our chilly end terraced we are considering what we can do over the summer to make sure we don't suffer as badly next year. New loft insulation is top of the list and possibly a new boiler as the existing one seems underpowered (have yet to do the calcs - but it doesn't make a dint when on full pelt all day long).
I have always assumed that our the house doesn't have cavity walls as it was built in 1905 and I didn't think they were really used until quite a few years after that - but it occurred to me this morning that the brickwork doesn't have any bricks end-on (IYSWIM) that would usually identify it as a solid wall. Is it as simple as this though, or could it still be a solid wall?
If there is still doubt, does anyone have any tips on how I can find out for sure?
Cheers.
Richard Conway.
