Cavity Wall Insulation
Having cavity wall
insulation installed is one of the most cost effective energy
efficiency improvements that you can make. It can save up to 33% on fuel bills. Cavity wall
insulation funding is available to home owners. For more details see
our section on costs and
grants. We can also help with cavity wall insulation for
blocks of flats, offices, schools and village halls.
Having adequate loft
insulation is also vital for maximising home energy efficiency. The
recommended depth for loft insulation is 270mm (10.5 inches) of
mineral wool insulation. An additional layer of loft insulation can be
added to top up existing insulation bring it up to the current standard.
The installation of loft
insulation can usually be completed in around an hour. Cavity
wall installations normally take less than half
a day.
Loft insulation and cavity wall
insulation will pay for themselves in just a few years. Some home owners
are able to benefit from home insulation grants. The installers listed
on our site will be able to provide more information on funding
currently available and also advice on Green Deal insulation
and Eco funding.
Solid
Wall Insulation
Properties which do not
have cavity walls can have solid wall
insulation applied. This may be in the form of insulation cladding
to the exterior of the building, which is covered by an insulating
render, or internal insulation, with panels fitted to the walls within
the building. The installers in our directory are able to provide
advice on the most appropriate type of solid wall insulation for hard to treat
homes.
Sound Insulation and
Soundproofing
Noisy neighbours are a
common problem, affecting many homes. Noise can also be a problem
within the home or office, particularly from laminate flooring and footsteps on
stairs.
The sound insulation installers listed in our directory
will advise you on how noise transmission through your walls, floor and
ceiling can be reduced to make your living environment more comfortable through the
installation of soundproofing materials.
Spray Foam Insulation
We can also put you in touch
with spray
foam insulation and roof
stabilisation specialists. The polyurethane spray foam sprayed onto roof
tiles and slates both strengthens the roof and provides roof insulation. Use our site to find
insulation prices and get free surveys and quotations from companies
covering your
