Measure — major fabric upgrade

External wall insulation that transforms how a home performs.

External wall insulation (EWI) wraps the outside of a solid or poorly-insulated home in a continuous insulating layer, dramatically reducing heat loss. We coordinate the whole project from assessment to render finish.

What is involved

A staged project, managed door to door.

External wall insulation is a bigger intervention than loft or cavity work. It typically involves scaffolding, fitting insulation boards to the outside of the walls, mechanical fixings, a base coat with reinforcement mesh, and a finishing render. Done well, it lifts the thermal performance of the whole envelope and transforms how the home feels.

  • Survey and specification appropriate to your wall build-up
  • Scaffold, installation, base coat and render coordinated as one project
  • Detailing around windows, eaves and openings reviewed carefully
  • Sign-off documentation kept on file for compliance and warranty
