How to Fit Wall Insulation Boards?

Internal insulation is typically attached to interior walls with screws or bonding and usually extends from the bottom of the ground floor up to eaves level. It then continues and marries with the roof insulation.External wall insulation involves putting an insulating material layer on the wall and then topping it with a specific sort of render (plasterwork) or cladding. When insulating exterior walls, a common method is to install rigid boards along with a vapour barrier.Always consult with a professional for detailed guidance.

How to Fit Insulation Board to External Walls?

We discourage homeowners from insulating solid walls themselves. In most cases, homeowners employ professionals to install external solid wall insulation. This type of insulation can also change the outward appearance of your home, which may require planning permission. The installation process is complicated and involves lots of different steps. Professionals have to undertake render tests, remove pipework, and protect windows before they can even think about installing external wall insulation. When it comes to high-performance thermal materials, it pays to speak to the experts to ensure the work adheres to current building regulations.
