What's the recommended insulation for a new-build cavity wall? Last time I used fibre-glass bats from Wickes, but I've just spoken to a builder who says he doesn't like using them because, if they get wet, they can hold mold spores that are bad for health. Instead he recommends foil-backed Kingspan which he says is much more expensive and hard to get cheap/at a discount.
Is what he says true but unnecessary or is he just talking the price up? If the fibreglass is getting wet, you've surely got other problems to worry about.
