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.

Improving Thermal Efficiency with EWI and IWI

We offer two primary routes to improving your home insulation: External Wall Insulation and Internal Wall Insulation. EWI involves fixing a layer of insulation to the outside of your property, which is then finished with durable, weather-resistant materials like high-quality silicone render or K Rend. This not only traps heat effectively but also protects the brickwork and provides a fresh, modern aesthetic. For properties where changing the external appearance is not an option, such as those in conservation areas, our Internal Wall Insulation service provides an excellent alternative. We use precision dry-lining and skimming techniques to install insulation from the inside, significantly reducing cold spots and eliminating draughts while maintaining the charm of your property exterior.

Why upgrade your home to PAS 2035 standards?

Retrofitting a home correctly is about more than just adding layers of material; it is about managing moisture and ensuring long-term structural health. As a PAS 2030 accredited company, we strictly adhere to PAS 2035 standards, ensuring that every project is assessed correctly to prevent issues like interstitial condensation or damp. This professional approach is essential for modernising solid wall properties in Loughor, helping you achieve a better EPC rating and protecting your asset for the future. Whether you are a homeowner or a landlord striving to meet mandatory MEES regulations, our technical expertise provides the compliance and peace of mind you require.

Common questions about solid wall insulation

Many homeowners ask if their specific building type can be insulated, and the answer is almost always yes. We work on a vast range of structures, from detached bungalows and semi-detached homes to commercial offices and schools across South Wales. Another common question is whether the work will cause significant disruption. Our team prides itself on a clean, efficient installation process that respects your home and schedule. Furthermore, our projects come with SWIGA-backed guarantees, giving you the added security of an insurance-backed warranty for your energy efficiency investment.

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.
