WHY INSULATE?

All-round insulation offers the best means of enabling existing houses to meet today's demanding standards - in terms of warmth, comfort, saving money, and protecting the environment. For maximum energy efficiency and cost effectiveness insulation should be applied by a specialist installer as a package of measures - cavity wall insulation, loft insulation and draught proofing.

Owners and tenants of industrial and commercial buildings are reminded to upgrade their properties to maximise energy efficiency in order to avoid over payments on Climate Change levy.

New houses today have insulation built-in all around the house. That this is a requirement within government Building Regulations shows its importance.

Prior to 1982, houses were built to lower insulation standards and are much more expensive to heat. Why put up with this when insulation could make your house thermally as good as new?

For maximum energy efficiency and cost effectiveness, insulation needs to be applied as a package of measures - cavity wall insulation, loft insulation and draught proofing. If you agree to the work being done during the summer months, rather than leaving it until the Autumn, you may find that it is less expensive and you avoid a waiting list.

Projects:

All new builds are built using double glazing that on average last between 10 and 25 years. All doors, conservatories and windows Nottingham are double glazed and help keep heat in & the cold out. This type of insulation is essential in selling any home at a premium and helps the environment.

Ensure that you don't compromise the quality of your insulation project by using inferior materials or tools. Invest in the best quality air compressors, nailers, fasteners and hand tools that you can afford.
