Helping you spend less on your heating this winter.
Whether you heat your home with electric, oil, gas or solid fuel - sealing the gaps with insulation will help you make some significant savings. Let us show you how.
Out of sight, out of mind.
Sometimes areas that generate the biggest savings with home insulation aren’t the places you’d visit often, like your roof - where 25% of your heat can be lost.
Did you know attic insulation is one of the easiest and cheapest ways you can make big savings through insulation?
Let’s take a trip to the attic and spend 2-minutes exploring which type of roof insulation could be best for your home.
Already got double glazing and think you're sorted? Your windows may no longer be doing their job properly.
Windows can account for an eye-watering 25% of your property heat loss, and are one of the most common places we lose heat without realising. Depending when your home was built, you can optimise your insulation in different ways - and it doesn't all need to cost the earth.
Allow us less than 2 minutes to walk you through some little things to look out for to make sure you're not wasting money unknowingly.
Did you know that up to 15% of home heat loss comes from flooring, and another 15% from draughts?
The way hot and cold air exchanges (i.e. how quickly warm air can be replaced with cold) has a big impact on your bill - so seal all those draughts! It's worth the effort.
A well-insulated home is key to keeping you cosy, your heating costs low, and having a smaller carbon footprint.
Let us show you how you can insulate your floor and stop those draughts from helping themselves to your money.

A cosy, cost-effective home starts at the entrance with a well-insulated door. Depending on what your door is made of, there will be different ways to best insulate the space and get your home energy efficient.
Let's explore what to do with your door
Uninsulated walls account for a massive 35% of your home's heat loss, which is why you might sometimes feel trapped by high heating bills when winter comes around.
Although a more pricey investment in your property, wall insulation will certainly be the most effective way to cut down energy waste in your home.
Wall insulation wasn’t a regulation in builds until the early 1990's, so many of our islands’ homes may not have the most optimal insulation. There are a few options though, regardless of when your property was built.
We’ll take a look at them in this short video.
