Insulation in itself can cause more problems than it solves in some circumstances though, especially when it results in moisture becoming trapped within the fabric of the building. Cavity wall insulation is one such example where there was a mad splurge of works being done poorly and where inappropriate, the inevitable result being further works required to remove it and make good the damage caused. Insulate Britain's dream come true would be much more of the same.

Thats what happens when you seal a house that has no mechsnical ventillation. incompetence us rampant in the construction industry here. I live in a newbuild, this year communal heating system has burst, and flooded 13th floor with boiling water. Mulpiple residents ended up in the hospital. Where was spectacylar a 50 meter waterfall from the side of the building. You know why? They used rubber pipes, and they weren't rated to habdle the temperature.
