Understanding the Benefits and Process of External Insulation for Your Home


 

At CKF we specialize in transforming homes into energy-efficient havens. In this blog, we'll explore the benefits of external insulation and how it's a smart investment for your home in Ireland.


Why External Insulation Matters:


The Process of External Insulation:


  1. Assessment: We start by assessing your home's specific needs, considering wall types, and potential impacts on the roof, windows, and doors​​.

  2. Choosing the Right Material: Our team uses approved External Thermal Insulating Composite Systems (ETICS), which involve fixing materials like expanded polystyrene slabs or mineral wool to the exterior walls​​.

  3. Installation: A base coat with reinforcing fiberglass mesh is applied, followed by a finishing render for weather resistance​​.

  4. Attention to Detail: We ensure that all aspects, including ventilation and services, are taken into account to maintain the health and safety of your home​​.
