Services
Cavity Wall Insulation
Cavity wall insulation reduces heat loss by filling gaps between walls with high-performance materials. Suitable for homes built between 1924 and 2005, it cuts energy bills by up to 300 annually. Grants often cover full costs for eligible households, with installations completed in under three hours by approved professionals.
Loft Insulation
Loft insulation prevents heat escaping through roofs, saving up to 355 yearly. Ideal for properties with less than 100mm existing insulation, it involves laying mineral wool to 270mm depth. Grants cover most costs under ECO4, with installations taking around an hour by certified teams.
External Wall Insulation
External wall insulation wraps properties in insulating boards, improving EPC ratings and saving up to 260 annually. Available for solid-wall homes, grants cover up to 25% of costs, with installations lasting up to a week and including weatherproof finishes.
Internal Wall Insulation
Internal wall insulation adds thermal layers to solid walls, saving up to 360 yearly. Suitable for older properties, grants cover mid-terraced homes with EPC ratings D-G. Installations use boards or stud walls, requiring 2-7 days depending on property size.
Room in Roof Insulation
Room in roof insulation targets converted loft spaces, reducing heat loss by 25%. Designed for habitable attic rooms, it involves fitting insulation between rafters. Grants cover eligible households, with savings of 150-400 annually and installations completed in one to two days.
