Loft Insulation: A Simple Guide
What exactly is loft insulation, and in what ways can a professional installer assist you in selecting the appropriate type?
It’s basically a cosy layer, often made from mineral wool, that you spread out over your loft floor between and over the joists. Imagine it like a super thick, comfy blanket for your house! Right now, they suggest you go for a depth of at least 270mm.
A lot of older houses have way less than that sometimes even under 100mm! That means a ton of valuable heat is slipping out through those uninsulated rafters and loft space!
This layer of insulation acts like a cosy blanket, keeping the heat from sneaking out of your roof during the winter, especially when using renewable materials. Can you believe that around 25% of the heat in a house can disappear right through the roof?
Loft insulation isn’t just a winter thing. It also keeps your home cooler in the summer by shutting out the sun’s heat, so you don’t end up with those sweltering, cramped rooms.

Cavity Wall Insulation: A Simple Guide
What is Cavity Wall Insulation?
Imagine your walls featuring a hidden space, much like a secret storage area. That’s the cavity! In many modern homes, there is a gap between the inner and outer walls, and this is where cavity wall insulation comes into play.
We pack that area with a unique insulating material, similar to miniature super beads that retain warmth inside your house. It’s like providing your home with a cosy, comfortable jacket!
This prevents warmth from leaving through the walls and were you aware that as much as 35% of a house’s heat can be lost through them? This ensures you stay warm during the winter months while also lowering your heating and energy bills.
Additionally, it can help prevent and reduce damp and mould by minimising condensation on your walls, cavity wall insulation not only locks out the cold but also keeps the heat from escaping when cavity insulation is installed.
Not only does it keep you warm in the winter but it helps you keep cool in the summer. By blocking heat from coming in during the summer months, it helps keep the indoor temperature pleasant, minimising the reliance on air conditioning and conserving additional energy. It’s a beneficial situation for both your comfort and your finances throughout the year!

Internal Wall Insulation: A Simple Guide
What is Internal Wall Insulation?
If your house has solid walls, which is typical in older buildings made of brick or stone, you might be losing a considerable amount of heat. In reality, as much as 35% of a home’s warmth can be lost through walls that aren’t insulated! However, there’s no need to be concerned, internal wall insulation can come to your aid.

Think of it as lining your walls in a thermal barrier made from high-quality insulation installed by professionals! This extra layer significantly reduces heat loss, keeping your home warmer in the winter and aiding you in lowering heating costs.
What’s even better? Internal wall insulation is ideal for any solid wall structure since the system can be customised to meet your home’s unique requirements, using thermal insulation materials.
