Why Choose Us for Solid Wall Insulation?

Based in Ferndale and covering South Wales and South West England, Global Plastering is your trusted local partner for tackling cold, hard-to-heat homes. Whether you need External Wall Insulation (EWI) to transform a solid brick property or Internal Wall Insulation (IWI) to preserve a historic Victorian façade, our fully guaranteed retrofit services eliminate thermal bridging, lock in heat, and dramatically improve your EPC rating.

Why choose professional insulation for your Aberdare home

Solid walls account for a massive portion of heat loss in older UK housing stock. By installing external or internal wall insulation, we effectively tackle cold spots and eliminate thermal bridging, which is often the primary cause of damp and mould growth in solid-walled houses. Whether you reside in a traditional terrace or a non-traditional build like an Airey or Cornish unit, our retrofit solutions provide a robust barrier against the elements. This upgrade is one of the most impactful ways to improve your property's EPC rating and contribute to regional decarbonisation goals.

How do we ensure quality and compliance

We operate as a fully PAS 2030 accredited installer, ensuring every project meets the rigorous PAS 2035 retrofit standards. Our process begins with a detailed assessment of your property to determine whether external or internal insulation will provide the best thermal outcome. As a SWIGA-accredited contractor, we offer insurance-backed guarantees that provide our clients in South Wales with complete peace of mind. Our team handles every stage with precision, from initial survey to final finish, ensuring your home complies with current energy efficiency legislation.

Is solid wall insulation right for your property

Many of our clients in Aberdare ask if their home is suitable for insulation. The answer is almost always yes. Whether you own a detached home, an end-of-terrace property, or a flat, we have the technical expertise to install high-performance insulation without compromising the character of your building. For landlords and property investors, these upgrades are essential for meeting MEES compliance and improving the long-term rental value of your assets. We work closely with our clients to manage any necessary planning considerations, especially when dealing with period homes or properties in conservation areas.

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 PAS 2030 accredited solid wall insulation, EWI solutions, and retrofit services in South Wales and South West England and across South Wales.

Does solid wall insulation cause damp?

+

When installed correctly by professionals like us, it actually helps prevent damp. By keeping the internal surface of the wall warmer, it stops water vapour in the air from condensing on the wall. We always make sure there is adequate ventilation as part of our PAS 2035 assessment to keep the air fresh and the walls dry.

Do I need planning permission for External Wall Insulation?

+

In many cases, EWI falls under "permitted development." However, if you live in a conservation area, a listed building, or if the insulation significantly changes the look of the front of your house, you might need permission. We can help advise you on the local rules in Rhondda Cynon Taf and beyond.

How long does the installation take?

+

For a standard semi-detached or terraced home, External Wall Insulation usually takes between 2 to 3 weeks, depending on the weather. Internal insulation can be faster but depends on how many rooms you are doing at once. We always aim to keep the workspace tidy and the disruption to a minimum.

Is it worth the investment?

+

Solid wall houses lose about twice as much heat as those with cavity walls. By insulating, you are making a long-term investment that protects the fabric of your building, slashes your carbon footprint, and saves you money every single month on your gas or electric bills.
