Benefits of External Wall Insulation
01
Lowers Fuel Bills
Nearly half of the heat lost from some solid wall houses can be through the walls. Installing Exterior Wall Insulation will stop this heat from being lost so quickly and save you money on fuel bills.
02
Prolongs Building Life
External Wall Insulation systems protect the building façade from the effects of the weather.
03
Improves Building Appearance
External Wall Insulation systems incorporate an extensive range of decorative finishes and colours. It will give a consistent colour and finish across the property and help cover any previous defects and signs of age.
04
Eliminates Condensation
External Wall Insulation helps eliminate interstitial and internal condensation and assists with overcoming associated problems such as damp internal walls and mould growth.
05
Minimises Disruption
By definition, External Wall Insulation systems are installed on the exterior of a building/property, therefore occupants do not have to leave their business premises or the comfort of their homes during the application of the system. In addition, internal space is not infringed upon.
