Solid Wall Insulation
Our solid wall insulation survey assesses your home’s walls to identify heat loss and recommend the best insulation solutions, enhancing energy efficiency and comfort.
What is Solid Wall Insulation?
Effective solid wall insulation can significantly lower your energy bills and improve your home’s overall comfort.
Solid walls, typically found in older properties, can lose a substantial amount of heat compared to cavity walls. By insulating these walls, you create a barrier that reduces heat transfer, enhancing your home’s thermal performance. Insulation materials such as rigid foam boards, mineral wool, or insulating render can be used to achieve this.

What to Expect During a Survey
- Initial Consultation: We begin with a detailed discussion about your home’s current insulation and your goals for improving energy efficiency. This helps us understand your specific needs and tailor our survey accordingly. We will ask questions about your home’s age, construction type, and any known issues with insulation or heating.
- Solid Wall Inspection: Our expert will visit your property to inspect the solid walls. We assess the current condition of the walls, check for potential issues such as dampness or structural weaknesses, and measure the surface area that needs insulation. This inspection includes a close examination of both the interior and exterior walls to ensure a comprehensive assessment.
- Thermal Imaging: Using advanced thermal imaging technology, we detect areas of heat loss and identify where insulation can be most effective. This helps us provide precise recommendations for your home’s insulation needs. Thermal imaging allows us to visualise heat flow and pinpoint areas that require attention, ensuring no part of your walls is overlooked.
- Moisture and Structural Assessment: It’s crucial to ensure that your solid walls are free from dampness and structurally sound before installing insulation. We conduct moisture assessments to detect any damp areas and advise on necessary repairs to ensure the insulation will be effective and long-lasting. Our structural assessment includes checking for signs of water damage, cracks, or any structural weaknesses.
- Detailed Report: After the survey, we provide a comprehensive report outlining our findings and recommendations. This report includes an evaluation of your current insulation, potential energy savings, and information on available grants to support your insulation project. Our report is designed to give you a clear understanding of the benefits and costs associated with solid wall insulation.
