Insulating the walls of your home is a very important step to help combat rising energy bills and reduce your carbon footprint. Cavity wall insulation fills the air space between the interior and exterior walls of your home to help reduce the amount of energy passing through the wall. It helps to regulate the heat in your property, meaning your home will be warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer. ThermaBead is an innovative cavity wall insulation material that provides an extremely high level of thermal wall efficiency.
Foamseal is increasingly being used in the conversion, restoration and renovation of period homes, schools, churches and barns - many of which are Grade I or II listed. Renovating these properties requires a sympathetic approach to the original character, but this does not mean that you have to settle for sub-standard insulation performance. Foamseal can be plastered over for a beautiful finish, leaving most of the rafter exposed. If you are planning to plaster over Foamseal, the foam will require a certain amount of cutting back and trimming and the overspray will need to be removed from the beams, but this work can be organised in conjunction with your builders or plasterers.
Age takes its toll on your roof and as the nails and slates or tiles degrade, it becomes progressively less able to withstand water penetration and storm damage. At some point you may be faced with the unpleasant prospect of a re-roof - often disruptive, time consuming and very expensive. Our fully trained technicians will repair or replace any lost slates or tiles and fully repair any damaged areas of your roof. This ensures it is completely safe and secure and still retains all of its original character.
Spray applied foam provides the ideal solution for insulation and condensation control in commercial buildings. It can be applied to almost all surfaces to improve the working environment and cut fuel costs. Asbestos encapsulation is an added benefit. West Sussex Industrial & Commercial Spray Foam ServicesApplications for polyurethane foams include factories, warehouses, exhibition halls, football stadiums and offices. In new and existing structures PU foams are economically applied to the underside of steel, asbestos, concrete and aluminium roofs and walls.
If you're planning a loft conversion, building a new property or extending an existing one, you'll need to comply with Building Regulations which continually upgrade insulation requirements. You'll achieve a much better (and almost certainly less expensive) result when you use Foamseal. Foamseal, applied directly to the underside of the roof, gives an insulation value equal to twice that of fibreglass without the need of a ventilated air gap. It turns the whole roof into a 'warm deck construction' allowing draught and dust-free storage areas to be created at the eaves.
Foamseal creates a Warm Deck construction which negates the requirement for a ventilated air gap above the insulation. The continuous spray leaves a minimal amount of surface area without insulation resulting in some cases, a 30% decrease in thermal transmission and an airtight building envelope of low permeability without the need for supplementary material. Foamseal also provides the specifier with complete design freedom as the spray foam adapts to the shape of the substrate providing an ideal solution for insulating difficult areas such as profiled and curved roofs.
Where Foamseal is applied at rafter level, only 100mm of insulation is required at the floor level of your loft space to meet current insulation targets. This means that you can board out the floor of your loft without compromising insulation performance. Foamseal is recommended for those suffering from allergies, asthma or other respiratory problems. It contains no formaldehyde and has no detectable emissions once cured. Foamseal contains no fibres and does not shrink, sag, settle, slip or turn to dust.
For this construction, externally insulating the property is the ideal solution as this allows the solid walls to dry out and heat up and the tea cosy effect then transforms the structure into a warm, dry thermal mass which is excellent for heat retention. Not only will house owners benefit from this but the external faade will be transformed by the flexible, waterproof external coating applied to the insulated faade. As with any property type, free technical advice is available on the Foamseal Technical Helpline to assist customers in specifying and purchasing the correct system for the individual requirements.
