Default Cavity wall insulation

I've just insulated the loft as no one would do it because the roof pitch is so low (I had to crawl up there pushing rolls of insulation!!!)
Anyway, that bit has been done!!

Does anyone know what sort of price I should be looking at to have the cavity walls done?

My house is a typical sized 3 bedroom, end of terrace house.

Paul,

For a start, you get a Government grant :-

Not sure of costs, but sometimes you can wangle a good deal through some companies

We had ours done through E On - got a grant towards it too - was a while ago but IIRC we paid round about £100 for a 3 bedroomed semi.
