Unscrupulous companies took advantage of government incentives for cavity wall insulation, resulting in poorly done jobs and negative impacts on homes. Government faces challenges in regulating the cavity wall insulation industry, as multiple companies can exploit the system for financial gain. Individuals, especially landlords and tenants on benefits or low incomes, should exercise caution and research before agreeing to cavity wall insulation services. It is crucial to verify if a home has a cavity wall, understand the proper insulation techniques, and ensure reputable companies are hired to avoid potential scams and poor workmanship.
