External Insulation on Cottage in Co Mayo

13 Feb External Insulation on Cottage in Co Mayo

External Insulation is a simple and easy way of thermally upgrading homes and buildings to prevent heat loss of up to 35%.  This can be done without much disruption as all works can be carried out whilst the buildings are occupied.

This is a house we are currently doing at the moment in Co Mayo.

External insulation is a thick board of insulation (100mm Platinum or similar) fixed onto the outside of your home with a brand new render (plaster) finish. The finish coat is pre-coloured so there is no painting required afterwards.
