Solid Wall Insulation
Why Insulate your Solid Walls?
You could be losing up to 35% of your heat through your walls and according to the Energy Savings Trust paying an extra £400 towards your yearly utility bills as a result. Not only can installing Solid Wall Insulation on your property save you money, it can also dramatically improve the look of your home.
Pre-installation
We can use a number of internal and external products in our solid wall insulation work so it is important that we understand your needs and your property. Therefore we have an initial, free, consultation either over the phone or via email in the first instance, and we will help you make an informed choice of what solution is best for you.
All products are fully compliant with all the latest safety regulations. So you can have peace of mind that the best and safest products are helping you to reduce costs and help the environment
After the initial conversation we will progress to a survey where we can assess your properties suitability for the different products and also give you a guideline for price and any solid wall insulation grants that are available. We will then arrange the work at a suitable date.
Example process – case study
For external solid wall insulation an option is a board and render solution. The example below is using Permarock.
Initially the walls are smoothed down and then tested for how many fixings are required. We then fix the boards to your walls – these are the insulants and will be the main contributor to your savings of up to £400 a year.
There is then an application of render on top of a mesh to make the boards fix and apply the correct strength / resilience to the wall. All window sills and external fittings, eg Satellite dishes, are adjusted to fit.
Finally we apply a top coat or finish which is available in a number of colours and styles.
This example shows how your property can be transformed in appearance and also in carbon emissions with U values improving to .32 on average. This can be varied using different board thickness’s.
