Is External Wall Insulation Worth the Investment?

We often get asked if installing external wall insulation (EWI) is worth the return on investment. Our answer is a resounding yes!Up to 33% of heat loss occurs through your walls, which leads to chilly interiors and higher heating bills as you turn up the heat to stay warm.

Just like with your windows, heating a room with cold walls causes condensation on the exterior surfaces. When warm air hits these cold walls, it creates moisture. This cycle of heating and cooling leads to moisture buildup, which can cause dampness and mold—potentially resulting in costly repairs.

External walls are cold because they are the primary barrier between your room and the outside elements. Installing external insulation is generally easier and less disruptive than internal wall insulation. It doesn’t require removing skirting boards, flooring, replastering, repainting, redecorating, or moving radiators, making it a more convenient and efficient solution.

At PlasterCraft Durham, we specialize in professional EWI installation to help you improve your home's energy efficiency and comfort while avoiding the hassle of interior renovations.
