Consider the wall and the whole building
Solid Wall Insulation
Explore internal or external insulation for a home with solid walls.
WHAT IT INVOLVES
Know what you’re asking for.
The choice depends on the building’s construction, condition and the details around windows, roofs and adjoining surfaces. An assessment should identify a suitable approach and any repairs needed first. Internal and external options have different implications for finishes and disruption.
What to discuss in the scope
- A proposed insulation approach following property assessment.
- An agreed specification covering affected walls and finishes.
Before the visit
- Share available plans and records of damp or wall repairs.
- Mention listed status, boundaries and features you want to retain.
