External Wall Insulation

Solid walls can be insulated in different ways to enhance both comfort and energy efficiency in your home. Inside, rigid insulation boards may be fixed directly to existing walls or fitted within a stud framework, which can be packed with insulating materials such as mineral wool or sheep’s wool.

Another option is external wall insulation, where an insulating layer is applied to the outside of your property and finished with durable render or cladding. Internal insulation is generally more affordable and can be carried out one room at a time, while external insulation offers greater long-term benefits, though it comes with a higher initial cost.

In the UK, around 28% of households—over 7 million homes—are built with solid walls, most dating back to before the 1930s. These properties often see significant improvements in heat retention and energy efficiency when upgraded with modern insulation solutions.

At Yorkshire Energy Solutions Ltd, we specialise in helping homeowners choose the most suitable insulation method for their property and budget, creating warmer, more comfortable homes all year round.

External Wall Insulation: A Careful, Tailored Process

Unlike internal insulation, external wall insulation adds a protective and insulating layer to the outside of your property. Since every home is different, factors such as wall construction, exposure to the elements, and design preferences all influence the most suitable solution.

At Yorkshire Energy Solutions Ltd, we understand these considerations and adapt our approach to your home’s unique requirements. Our skilled team will support you at every stage, enhancing warmth and energy efficiency while preserving your property’s appearance and ensuring full compliance with UK building regulations.

How Solid Wall Insulation Works?

How Solid Wall Insulation Keeps Your Home Comfortable and Efficient?

Solid wall insulation is an excellent way to create a warmer, cosier living space. It works by absorbing heat from inside and outside your home throughout the day, storing that warmth in the walls so your rooms stay comfortable even when the temperature drops. In the summer, external insulation also helps keep things cooler by reducing the amount of heat that enters your home.

The benefits of solid wall insulation include:

  • Reducing outside noise for a quieter, more peaceful home

  • Preventing heat loss so you stay warm for longer

  • Increasing the value of your property

  • Creating a snug and inviting atmosphere during colder months

  • Lowering energy bills by improving efficiency

At Yorkshire Energy Solutions Ltd, we’re committed to helping you find the ideal insulation solution to make your home warmer, more efficient, and more enjoyable all year round.
