About insulation
Heating costs are on the up, and in the UK we have a challenge to keep warm whilst not spending a fortune on our energy bills. As a nation we have stringent carbon targets to meet later on this decade.
With UK properties being some of the leakiest in Europe, external wall solid wall insulation is a fantastic energy efficiency measure to help reduce carbon emissions and 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. Slowing the movement of heat out through the walls and dramatically reducing heating demand.
Advantages of our method
Discover the key benefits of our external insulation solutions using expanded polystyrene and decorative render:
Energy saving
Reduces heat loss by up to 30%, leading to significant savings on heating.
Waterproofing
Provides excellent waterproofing for walls, protecting against the humid Northern Ireland climate.
Lack of interior decoration
Eliminates the need for interior finishing work, saving time and costs.
Exterior works
All insulation and finishing work is carried out on the outside the building without disrupting the inside.
Improving your comfort
Helps reduce indoor humidity levels, creating more comfortable and warmer living conditions.
Aesthetics
Decorative plaster enhances the look of your home.
Our Process
The process is relatively complex, but the basic steps are outlined below:
-
Insulating panels are fixed to the wall using adhesive mortar.
-
Plastic capped fixings are driven through the insulating panels for maximum adhesion to the wall.
-
Mortar is applied over the insulating panels and the fixings.
-
An insulating mesh is sunk into the mortar to hold the panels in position.
-
The mortar is sanded and painted with primer to prepare it for the render
-
The coloured render finish is applied (available in any colour).*

Andrii and his team (Vitalii and Nikita) did an absolutely brilliant job on our home renovation. The main focus was a complete ensuite refit, but they also worked on the main bathroom, laid new flooring in the whole house (90m2) installed a kitchen sink with a spring mixer tap, and even reinforced the stairs and second-floor subfloor to stop persistent creaking...

Andrii, Vitalli and Niki are a truly exceptional team, they went above and beyond what was asked, making the finished job better than I imagined. They tackled this old house and plumbing with 100% focus and top class workmanship, from installing a new tank to refitting a whole bathroom, tackling horrendous hidden issues with skill. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them...

Wonderful company. I was stressed out with the prospect of getting old tiles off a wood floor and relaying flooring under an exiting kitchen but Ukrainian Construction Company took all the stress away and offered great solutions. I was also offered advice which was appreciated. They are very hardworking and pay attention to detail. Andrei went out of the way to finish the job even...
