Cavity Wall Insulation stores heat within the inner walls, bouncing it back into the room and holding it for longer. This gives you a more even temperature and eliminates draughts that come down from the walls. The cavity is located between the inner and outer brickwork of the property, ideally around 50mm wide. The main materials we use are the EPS bead (polystyrene bead). Cavity Wall Insulation can reduce your heating bills, minimise wear and tear on your boiler, and combat climate change. Some insurance backed guarantees can cover you for up to 25 years.

Internal wall insulation is like wrapping your home in a blanket, or wrapping a teapot in a tea cosy to keep it warmer for longer! Internal wall insulation will retain heat in your home just like that tea cosy would, by adding a thermal layer of material to the existing wall to keep your home warmer for longer when you put your heating on. Insulating your solid walls will cut your heating costs considerably. There is very little disruption as the workers are highly skilled and always take good care when working inside customers’ premises. The typical installation time varies depending on the size of your home. If you live in a bigger house, with 5 bedrooms for example, then the work can take up to 10 days. If you live in a smaller flat, it should take around 3 days to complete. Solid wall insulation is suitable for a variety of property types including brick, stone, steel-framed and concrete construction.

Solar panels work by converting energy from sunlight into electricity using photovoltaic (PV) cells made of semiconductor materials like silicon. When sunlight hits the cells, it excites electrons in the semiconductor material, creating an electric current. The PV cells are grouped into panels connected to an inverter that converts the direct current (DC) generated by the panels into a safer alternating current (AC) used by most home appliances. The efficiency of solar panels depends on factors like the angle of sunlight, panel quality, and weather conditions. The electricity can be used immediately, or exported back into the grid for compensation.
