Insulation is a natural starting point for any property.  The main elements are walls and lofts (see below) but floors and rooves should also be considered. 

 

WALLS

It's estimated that between 35-45% of heat within your property escapes through the walls so it is essential to insulate wherever possible.  
 
CAVITY WALLS (generally seen in buildings from 1950s onwards) often have no pre-existing insulation (an "empty" cavity) or may have been partially filled or may have insulation which has failed.

 

SOLID WALLS (generally in buildings prior to 1950) do not have a cavity and so require a different solution - normally external or internal wall insulation. 

​

As a qualified Retrofit Assessor I am able to inform you if your walls are effectively insulated and what improvements can be made for their thermal efficiency.  Working with experienced professional installers I steer you towards the right solution for your property.

​

LOFTS
It is estimated that 25% of your house's heating escapes through the roof.  Insulating your loft effectively is a relatively easy measure to undertake but an important one to retain heat within your house.
