External wall insulation mitigates the amount of heat lost through a building’s walls, which is estimated to be around 45%. Insulation is fixed to the outer leaf of a building and is then covered with a thin coat of silicone render, which is available in a choice of over 500 colour options. It is a great option for customers who are looking to improve the heating efficiency of their home & want to improve the facade of their property at the same time.
EWI is the most effective way of insulating a buildings wall as it ensures the full surface area is fully insulated ensuring cold or thermal bridging is eliminated. Within this service, we also address any potential ventilation problems, carry out all the enabling works such as extending flu pipes & downpipes, make your weatherproof by sealing up all the windows & also extend the windowsills on your property.
Please see photo here of a fully finished window upon completion.
Also, the Government are currently offering an incentive where all insulation works have nil VAT on their quotes This means that it generally isn't much more expensive than having your house just rendered. At Yorkshire Rendering, we ultimately like to offer our customer an "all in one package" which not only includes the cost of the works, but for all the other relevant costs to complete the job also, such as scaffolding, waste disposal costs, enabling costs and all the finishing costs. This means once the project has started, you can relax and be assured you are in safe hands.
Below is a timelapse video of a recent project we have carried out, which will show you the sequence of the works throughout a typical project.
The Social Housing Decarbonisation Fund (SHDF) is designed to support social housing providers in improving the energy efficiency of their properties. This government-backed initiative helps reduce carbon emissions and energy bills by funding retrofit insulation and renewable energy measures for homes most in need.
We specialize in working with various frameworks under the SHDF, targeting social housing projects to ensure tenants benefit from warmer homes, lower energy costs, and a reduced environmental footprint. Our services are tailored to align with the SHDF’s goals of creating sustainable, energy-efficient homes for low-income communities across the UK.
Our retrofit insulation and renewable energy solutions contribute to significant energy savings and lower carbon emissions. Whether you are a social housing provider or a tenant, our expertise ensures that your property is future-proofed against rising energy costs.
