Underfloor Insulation

Are you tired of cold, draughty floors? Underfloor insulation can fix the problem, as it is designed to stop heat from escaping through the floor of your home.

It not only keeps your floor warmer but also prevents the heat from escaping, eliminates draughts, and makes your living spaces cosier.

The Benefits

Insulating your floor is a crucial step in creating a fully-insulated, energy-efficient home with several key benefits:


Improved Comfort: It creates a noticeable difference in the overall warmth of your home, not just in the temperature of the floors.


Lower Energy Bills: By preventing up to 10-20% of heat from escaping through the floor, you'll need to use less energy to heat your home.


Reduced draughts: Underfloor insulation also helps to draught-proof your home, sealing up gaps in suspended floors.


Environmental Impact: Consuming less energy for heating means you’ll also reduce your home's carbon footprint.


Government Grants Available: You may be eligible for grants to help cover the cost of installation, making the upgrade even more cost-effective.

What does underfloor insulation look like and where does it fit in your house?

Suspended floor insulation tends to be soft and fluffy like wool. This fills the gaps between your timber floor.


Solid floor insulation works a little differently. Hard and firm panels of insulation are placed on top of your existing concrete floor.


Both types of underfloor insulation are hidden under your floor, so very little space is needed and you won’t notice them.


Installing underfloor insulation is also an opportune time to address draughts through the floors and junction with the walls helping you have a warmer home.

How It Fits in Your Home

How It Fits in Your Home

Underfloor insulation is suitable for both suspended and solid floors on the ground level of most homes.

  • Suspended Floors: This process is more straightforward as our team works underneath your existing floorboards. It can also be an ideal time to draught-proof your home where the floor meets the walls.

  • Solid Floors: This method is more involved as it may require building work. Our advisers will assess your home to determine the best approach, whether it's laying insulation on top of the existing floor or undertaking a more comprehensive rebuild.
