Un-insulated solid walls can lose heat twice as fast as un-insulated cavity walls but insulating them externally could save you up to £435 each year and save 1770 kg/CO2/year* (*source: Energy Savings Trust).
Basically… the better insulated a property is, the less money you will spend heating it.
External wall insulation involves fixing a layer of insulation material to the outer wall of a property (which is not of cavity construction) then covering the insulation material with render or cladding.
There are many finishes available including smooth, painted, textured, tiled, panelled, pebble-dashed or brick slips.
We use several different systems like SPS Envirowall, Wetherby, Permaroc and Knauf.
We will carry out a full technical survey of your property to make sure it is suitable for external wall insulation before any work is carried out.
When finished your home will have a great new look and have a maintenance-free finish that will not require decorating for many years which will help to save you money on your heating bills.
Erect scaffold if required and remove or extend all external wall furniture.
Attaching a supporting track around the bottom of the property at damp course level.
Fixing insulation boards to the external walls using a cement-based adhesive, followed by a mechanical fixing pin.
Applying a base coat render and glass fibre mesh to prevent cracking.
Apply primer and finish off with your chosen decorative finish.
