Cavity downstairs and solid wall upstairs?
The walls of our 1930's house appear to be thinner upstairs than
downstairs, most obvious on the landing where there's a shelf / second window sill: http://tinyurl.com/3a8tuo Our neighbour told me that, when she had cavity wall insulation recently, the installers were only able to do downstairs. She wasn't sure whether this was because upstairs was solid or a thinner cavity. Has anyone come across this type of construction before? Is it more likely that it's solid or just a thinner cavity? I'd have thought that, if a cavity existed, it could be filled with the kind of blown insulation that's used today. Thanks. |
