Services
Loft Insulation
Loft insulation involves adding insulating material to the loft space to prevent heat loss through the roof. This energy-efficient solution significantly reduces heating costs while improving home comfort. Our installers use high-quality Knauf Earthwool materials that maintain effectiveness for at least 50 years when undisturbed. The service includes a comprehensive survey and professional installation completed within three days on average. Customers may qualify for partial funding through ECO4 or GBIS schemes to offset installation costs.
Cavity Wall Insulation
Cavity wall insulation fills the gap between internal and external walls with mineral wool or foam to prevent heat loss. This proven method improves energy efficiency ratings and reduces annual energy bills. Our system includes 25-year product warranties and insurance-backed guarantees. The installation process requires a 50mm cavity width and typically completes within a single day. Eligible properties may access government funding through ECO4 to cover most costs.
Internal Wall Insulation
Internal wall insulation provides a non-intrusive solution for solid wall properties without affecting external appearance. Using the SWIP IWI system with thermally engineered composite studs, we deliver high-performance thermal insulation that meets building regulations. The service includes soundproofing options and comes with 25-year workmanship guarantees. Professional surveyors assess suitability during the free initial consultation.
Underfloor Insulation
Underfloor insulation reduces heat loss through ground floors by adding insulating material beneath floorboards. This service typically lowers energy bills by preventing up to 15% of heat escaping through floors. Our Knauf OmniFit solutions last over 25 years and qualify for ECO4 funding for eligible properties. The minimally invasive installation process preserves existing floor structures while improving thermal efficiency.
Room in Roof Insulation
Room in roof insulation maintains warmth in converted loft spaces by preventing heat escaping through roof structures. Our certified installers use materials that meet building regulations while preserving usable space. The service includes thermal imaging assessments to identify heat loss areas. Completed projects receive certification to improve EPC ratings, with funding options available through government schemes for qualifying homeowners.
