Older Properties

If your property has floor boards then in most cases drafts are more apparent, the cold air rises up through the floor boards and carpets, in some cases you can see the carpet rise as the cold air penetrates up into your home. This is like your loft where heat rises then without loft insulation it’s lost through the roof, same as your floor your heat in your room is lost due to the cold air rising into your home. Underfloor insulation is designed to minimise cold air rising ensuring that your home retains the heat and keeps your home warmer and more efficient.

Newer Properties

New Homes differ considerably and most have solid concrete floors on the ground. A couple of options can be considered, a rigid insulation can be laid on top of the existing floor helping to reduce the cold from the concrete through your carpets and again retaining the heat within your property or if the floor needs replacing then insulation can be installed.

Underfloor Insulation

In most properties about 10% of the heat generated within your property is lost through your floors, underfloor insulation allows you to minimise the loss and maintain your heat where you want it, keeping the floors warmer in the winter months.
