Solid Internal/External Wall Insulation
We estimate and form in depth research that 35% of all heat loss in UK homes is through External walls.
Solid walls act as poor insulators of heat and surveys suggest that twice as much heat is lost through them than Cavity walls.
Solid walls can be treated either internally or externally both however carry a big decision for the client, externally it could alter the appearance for the good or detrimental depending on the area and setting, for the interior it has a consequence for reduction in space.
The Energy Saving Trust estimates that an annual saving of £460 is achieved on an average detached house in the UK.
Cavity Wall Installation
Cavity wall and loft insulation is worth up to £1,100 and can slice up to £480/year off energy bills.
Energy firms are offering it for free, as long as you own your home and meet their eligibility criteria – but make sure it's right for your home first.
Most homes built between 1920 and 1990 have a gap between internal and external walls. Filling the cavity with insulating material means cold air's kept out, and warm air stays in.
Are you eligible for the government ECO scheme?
Underfloor Heating is not for every household, many of the newer builds have a concrete base and therefore cannot be improved without expensive and very messy removal of existing materials, if you have a basement, cellar or suspended floor beneath your property then its almost certain you will qualify.
Eligibility checker
- Own or privately rent your home, which has an EPC rating of A to E (If you're renting we can offer insulation but not the boiler. Social housing properties aren't eligible.)
- Qualify for Universal Credits, Tax Credits, Child Benefit or another UK benefit allowance (see full qualifying criteria here).
