Save Money on Heating Bills
With the cost of living increasing drastically, Heating costs are on the up, and in the UK we have a challenge to keep warm whilst not spending an absolute fortune on our energy bills.
With UK properties being one of the leakiest in Europe, external wall solid wall insulation is a fantastic energy efficiency measure to help up not only reduce carbon, but keep heating bill rises in check.
Why choose external solid wall insulation?
Most properties built prior to 1930 were constructed with solid walls, so they don’t have cavities that can be injected with insulation. These solid wall properties can be insulated with external solid wall insulation. The purpose of insulating in this manner is to slow the movement of heat out through the walls, thereby dramatically reducing heating demand.
The advantages of exterior wall insulation are fairly well detailed above so I’ll just list them again here:
External solid wall insulation and damp
External wall insulation is a great way to protect against penetrating damp, creating a new weatherproof layer on the outside of the building, and slowing the movement of heat through the walls. Another advantage of solid wall insulation is that it will cause the temperature of the walls themselves to rise. This means if there is lots of water vapour in the air (from cooking or washing for example), this will no longer condense on these walls.
While obviously this is a benefit, it is still important to consider ventilation in the home – regardless of whether you insulate or not. This can be done by installing more vents or by making behavioural changes like opening windows and doors while cooking.
All Aspects Covered
Why Have External Wall insulation?
Energy Saving
External wall insulation is one of the most effective energy efficiency measures which can be used to improve the heat loss of your home. The result is a much more comfortable living environment within the home; external wall insulation is one of the most effective energy efficiency measures which can be used to improve the heat loss of your home by up to 45%. A typical domestic dwelling can save around £400-500 per year on heating costs, simply by installing external insulation
Improve Appearance
The external appearance of the home can be greatly improved using the range of coloured renders; pebbledash finish, you can also choose a brick slip effect. Older homes are often significantly improved to the high standard of new builds. We have a range of EWI options available that means there will be an appropriate solution for all homes regardless of the type and location of the property, aesthetic preference.
How much could I save fitting external wall insulation?
Along with making your property warmer, there are some big energy bill savings to be enjoyed when fitting external wall insulation. For example:
How long will external wall insulation last?
Depending on the installer, most manufacturers offer a warranty of 25 years, but the insulation has to be installed correctly.
This is a minimum term, so you should expect your insulation to last longer than that.
There shouldn’t be any problems with external wall insulation if it has been protected from the weather so a waterproof final render coating will be crucial.

I had EBM carry out a lintel replacement and damp proofing. They were brilliant from start to finish. They were clear in their quotation, kept me informed on a start date, turned up on time and got the job done on schedule and took every care in keeping my house clean. I'd highly recommend EBM

Work is near completion. Chris and the guys have been brilliant - very considerate and hard-working. The job has taken a while due to the consistent rain we have had the last couple of months but Chris has kept in constant communication to update me on when work can continue. Highly recommend.
