Ceiling Insulation

The most cost-effective way to retain heat in your home is by installing ceiling and underfloor insulation.

Did you know a house loses up to 35% of its heat or cooling through the ceiling?  That’s over one third!  The solution? You could snuggle up in a blanket (It’s what we’ve been doing for years and years)… OR you could put the blanket around your home. Bang for buck, the cost savings from ceiling insulation are more than worth the investment.

But it doesn’t stop there!

We know your family means the world to you. Nobody wants a wheezing, coughing loved one with a tight chest. We won’t mention the trip to A&E. Especially not if the solutions can be as simple as a ceiling insulation blanket.  Ceiling insulation also makes your home warmer, drier, and healthier. And you can say goodbye to mould.

Sadly, many of the pre-2000 houses in Aotearoa are so bad with attic insulation,  they perform well below the WHO minimum temperature recommendations.

For most existing houses, roof insulation installation is a piece of cake. You may even be entitled to a government subsidy.  But even if you don’t, with our competitive pricing you get top value for your hard-earned dollars. That should make ceiling insulation a no-brainer in our book.

Installing ceiling and underfloor insulation is one the easiest and most cost-effective ways to retain heat inside your home and contributes to a healthier living environment. Insulation makes your home warmer and drier which reduces your family’s exposure to damp, unhealthy air. It also means less illness from respiratory complaints.

Underfloor Insulation

Next on the list is the process of wrapping your home in a warm blanket i.e. Underfloor Insulation.

If you’re a landlord,  you’ll be aware that underfloor insulation became compulsory for all rental homes on 1 July 2019. But as the proud owner of a beautiful but drafty old villa, you will want us to fix insulation to the underside of your timber floor too; even if you already have floor foil insulation. We promise you’ll feel it in those power bills. And you won’t know how to contain your happiness after you realise that you’ve got cosy warm feet.

There is a bit of a trick to fixing underfloor insulation correctly but done well underfloor insulation not only helps with the R-value (thermal resistance value), it also reduces draughts coming from floor gaps. The underfloor insulation we use is made from polyester, very much like the pillows and duvet in your bed. It ticks all the boxes: NZ made, recyclable, safe, and highly effective!

For elevated houses, you may want to add a ground moisture barrier under your house.
