How Much Does Wall Insulation Cost?

Wall insulation typically costs between £15 and £30 per m². Prices depend on factors such as the type of insulation used, the complexity of the installation, and the size of the area to be insulated.

Common materials include mineral wool, foam board, and cellulose, each offering varying levels of thermal efficiency. Mineral wool provides excellent fire resistance, while foam board often excels in moisture-prone areas due to its resistance to water absorption.

The installation process may involve drilling and filling methods, particularly in solid wall properties, to ensure optimal coverage. Projects can typically take one to three days, depending on the property's size and wall type.

Adhering to Building Regulations for thermal performance ensures you achieve effective energy savings. For a quote tailored to your property, get in touch with our team for an assessment.

What Types of Wall Insulation Are Available?

We offer a variety of wall insulation types for properties, each designed to meet different building needs and improve energy efficiency.

Cavity Wall Insulation: This is ideal for properties with unfilled cavities. We typically use materials such as mineral wool, polystyrene beads, or polyurethane foam for effective energy savings. Installed to British Standard BS 8208, it provides an efficient barrier against heat loss.
Solid Wall Insulation: Best suited for older buildings without cavities, this option involves either internal or external applications. Materials like rigid insulation boards or insulating render systems are used. External insulation is often finished with a layer that meets weatherproof standards, extending the building's lifespan.
Loft Insulation: While not strictly for walls, it complements wall insulation by preventing heat escape through the roof. We use high-performance glass or sheep wool rolls, installed to a recommended depth of 270 mm to maximise thermal retention.

Each type has its benefits and is selected based on the construction style, energy efficiency goals, and specific requirements of your property. Contact us to discuss the best option for your home.

How Long Does Wall Insulation Take to Install?

Installing wall insulation typically takes one to three days, depending on the property size and type of insulation. For cavity wall insulation, we use specialised drills to make small holes in the exterior walls before injecting insulating material such as mineral wool or polystyrene beads.

This method is often completed in a single day. In contrast, solid wall insulation might require extra time for surface preparation, including cleaning and fixing any external wall issues, before applying external insulation panels or internal insulation boards.

This process can involve installing breathable membranes to prevent moisture build-up and improve thermal performance. We adhere to Building Regulations Approved Document L, which focuses on conservation of fuel and power, ensuring compliance with standards.

Our experienced team ensures minimal disruption to your routine during the installation process. Contact us to discuss your insulation needs.

What Are the Benefits of Wall Insulation?

Wall insulation offers numerous advantages, including:

Reduced Energy Bills: Lower heating and cooling costs through improved thermal efficiency, which is achieved by using materials like expanded polystyrene (EPS) or mineral wool, both known for their insulating properties. Typically, clients see a reduction of up to 30% in their energy expenses.
Increased Comfort: Enhances indoor comfort levels by reducing temperature fluctuations. This stability in temperature can prevent issues like condensation and dampness, which are common problems in older properties.
Environmental Impact: Lowers carbon footprint by reducing energy consumption. By following standards such as those set by BREEAM (Building Research Establishment Environmental Assessment Method), we ensure that our insulation services are environmentally sustainable.
Property Value: Increases the overall appeal and value of your home by not only lowering running costs but also by meeting criteria for energy performance certificates (EPCs), important for potential buyers.
