Why Choose Our Non-Traditional Build Insulation Services?

Based in Ferndale and covering South Wales and South West England, Global Plastering provides specialist thermal performance upgrades for complex property types, including Airey, Cornish units, and Wimpey no-fines concrete homes. Trust our fully insured, seasoned experts to effectively treat cold walls, drastically reduce your energy bills, and safely improve your property's EPC rating.

Understanding the Challenges of Concrete and Steel Framed Homes

Properties built after the war were often constructed using non-standard methods to solve housing shortages quickly. However, these materials often lack the thermal performance of traditional brick cavity walls. Without proper intervention, these homes often struggle with thermal bridging, leading to high energy bills and condensation. We specialise in identifying these weak points and applying robust external wall insulation systems that act as a protective thermal blanket for your building. By addressing the envelope of your property, we significantly reduce heat loss and stabilise internal temperatures year-round.

How Our PAS 2035 Compliant Retrofit Process Works

Our approach to non-traditional insulation in Somerset follows the strict guidelines of PAS 2035, ensuring every project is safe, compliant, and highly effective. We begin with a comprehensive technical survey to assess the structural integrity and moisture levels of your home. Following this, we design a bespoke insulation solution that suits your specific building type, whether it is a system-built concrete house or a steel-frame property. Once the high-performance insulation is installed, we finish the exterior with breathable silicone or K Rend systems, which provide both weather protection and an attractive, modern aesthetic.

Why Choose Global Plastering for Your Somerset Retrofit?

When dealing with non-traditional builds, expertise is non-negotiable. Global Plastering is a PAS 2030 accredited company, meaning we adhere to the highest industry standards for energy efficiency installations. We are also SWIGA accredited, allowing us to provide insurance-backed guarantees for your peace of mind. As a fully insured, professional team serving Burnham-On-Sea and the broader Somerset region, we pride ourselves on delivering durable solutions that help improve your property’s EPC rating and prepare your home for future energy standards.

How Can I Improve My Property Energy Rating?

Improving your EPC rating is essential for long-term property value and reducing carbon emissions. For older, system-built homes, external wall insulation is often the most effective way to jump multiple bands. By insulating your solid wall or concrete exterior, you eliminate cold spots and significantly lower your reliance on central heating. Whether you are a homeowner in Burnham-On-Sea or a landlord needing to meet MEES compliance, we provide the technical expertise to ensure your property meets modern legal and comfort standards.

What Our Clients Say About Global Plastering

"Excellent work the team removing our old 1970's cladding and replacing it with insulation and a rendered finish. The job went smooth from start to finish with all old materials removed from site. We are very pleased with the end result and would thoroughly recommend Global Plastering."

A. Jenkins (Ferndale)

"Dilwyn and his team were brilliant and made a lovely job of our EWI. They were very friendly, hard-working, and left no mess at the end of each day. Our house looks great and we can definitely feel the benefits of the insulation already. I'm very glad we chose EWI especially with energy costs as they are now."

G. Toogood (Bristol)

"Charlotte and the team were professional, reliable, and excellent at communicating throughout. They did a fantastic job of skimming and rendering the back of our house during our renovation. Superb quality of work and highly recommended!"

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about our specialist non-traditional build insulation and retrofit services in South Wales and South West England and across South Wales.

What is a Wimpey no-fines house and can it be insulated?

+

A Wimpey no-fines house is built using concrete that doesn't contain "fines" (small stones or sand), creating a porous structure. These homes are perfect candidates for external wall insulation. Because the walls are solid, EWI is the most effective way to stop heat loss and prevent the damp issues often associated with this build type.

Will I need planning permission to insulate my Airey or Cornish unit?

+

In many cases, external wall insulation falls under permitted development. However, because it changes the appearance of the property, it is always best to check with your local council in South Wales or the South West. If you live in a conservation area or a listed building, stricter rules apply. We can help you understand the requirements for your specific location.

How long does it take to install insulation on a non-traditional home?

+

Most domestic projects take between two to three weeks, depending on the size of the house and the weather. We manage the scaffolding, the delivery of materials, and the final clean-up, so you don't have to worry about the logistics.

Can you help with hard-to-treat properties like Airey houses?

+

Yes, Airey houses are a core part of our business. These homes have a specific concrete pier and panel construction that requires a specialist approach to fixing insulation. We use industry-approved methods to ensure the structural integrity of your home is maintained while we upgrade its thermal performance.
