Under Floor Insulation

Our commercial To identify if you have a checked floor you need to estimate whether there is a void under your floorboards and the floorboards themselves are ceasing over support. This void can cause a lot of heat loss if it’s not addressed so filling this void with floor insulation such as insulation roll or insulation board can minimize home bills and make your home more comfortable too.

Suspended floor insulation is the most comfortable fit when there is a vault or basement under the home. This should give an easy way to the void below the support, so insulation can be fixed in place using covering material. insulation slab or insulation board can be resistance fit into the strips so that the insulation stays put whilst insulation netting is rolled out and fixed at each joist just for some extra support.

Internal Wall Insulation

An uninsulated cavity wall can be responsible for up to 35% heat loss in your home. By insulating your home you will relieve the pressure on your heating system and reduce the amount of energy you use.

Cavities which have been ineffectively or partially filled historically can also be topped up to improve their efficiency. Government grants are available for loft and cavity wall insulation – we can access these on your behalf. Contact our team to see how we can help!

Room In The Roof Insulation (Attic)

Room in Roof Insulation (Attic Insulation) also known as Roof Space Insulation is defined as a room in the roof area with fixed staircase and 1 or more windows. Room in Roofs usually have no insulation within the walls which can cause large amounts of heat loss in your home. Insulating a smooth roof is a job that must be done during construction. Retrofitting room in roof insulation is a complex task and often a dirty one that involves pulling up the insulating layer that destroys off the deck to put room in roof insulation beneath. You will be incapable to pass your building or extension for required adjustments without room in roof insulation.

Room in Roof’s can now also be insulated using quality spray foam. Check out our Spray Foam Insulation page for more information.

Honest Advice

Loft Insulation

Before insulating a loft or a loft alteration it’s necessary to note the following to determine how and what you use to insulate a loft. It’ll help you to better explain what finish you might be looking to do, particularly when you’re opting for a loft conversion. In any respect, any project in the loft should be first and leading to increasing the energy efficiency of the house overall.

If you’re looking to insulate a ceiling or for roof insulation, you need to know if you want a warm roof or a cold roof. A warm roof is a roof that has insulation in the loft walls and floor, meaning that the loft space is insulated. A cold roof is a roof that has insulation just on the floor of the loft, insulating the space below but leaving the loft space uninsulated. Picking between a warm or cold roof is usually dependent on whether you’re thinking to use the loft space or not.

SOLID / EXTERNAL WALL INSULATION

Free Wall Insulation

Solid walls are usually notoriuosly bad for retaining heat, typically allowing twice as much heat to escape as cavity walls. Solid walls can usually be insulated either by applying high density insulation material internally, externally or both.

If you’re unsure whether your walls have a cavity in them you can usually check by either looking at the pattern of bricks or by measuring the thickness of the walls next to a door or window:

If the thickness of the wall is 260mm or greater, the wall probably has a cavity.

If the brickwork is exposed, look at the brick pattern. If the bricks are all oblong, laid end-to-end then the wall is likely to have a cavity. If some of the bricks are laid with the square end facing, the wall is likely to be solid. If the wall is stone, it is likely to be solid. Eco Assist estimates that an annual saving of £460 is achieved on an average detached house in the UK.
