What is Internal Wall Insulation?

To begin with, internal wall insulation is typically only a solution to consider for particular homes. The primary candidates for this insulation are often solid wall homes constructed of stone or brick and built before the 20th century.

A cavity wall is frequently a part of the building process for homes built after this period, with the possibility to employ cavity wall insulation to increase the thermal efficiency of your home. To enhance the property's thermal performance, internal wall insulation entails applying insulation to the interior face of exterior walls.

There are four primary installation techniques; the most popular (though not always the best) is constructing a new stud wall to which we can add insulation. However, installing internal wall insulation can be disruptive and necessitate removing and reinstalling appliances like switches, radiators, and kitchen cabinets.

Internal wall insulation typically costs between £40 and £50/m2, but when a new stud wall is constructed, the price can exceed £100/m2. The type of insulation chosen and the state of the existing wall will affect the price of internal wall insulation. Under the government's ECO initiative, funds are provided for solid internal wall insulation for households that meet the requirements.
