External Wall Insulation
External wall insulation is a heavy duty way of insulating a solid bricked property. In a solid bricked house, up to 45% of the heat is lost through the walls so it's extra important to have them insulated.
Why have Internal Wall Insulation installed?
What is External Wall Insulation?
External wall insulation is a type of insulation that is used on exterior walls of a property. It is typically done on a property that is made of solid brick (without a cavity, generally made before the 1950s).
Several layers are added to the home including a layer of insulation along with a rendering.
How does it work?
External wall insulation acts as an additional layer between the elements and your home, keeping in the heat and keeping out the cold.
This comes with the added benefit that it can be used to change the look of the property.
