Internal Wall Insulation

What is internal wall insulation, and how does it work?

Internal wall insulation involves installing a layer of insulating material on the internal walls of your home. This helps retain heat, reduces energy consumption, and improves overall comfort by preventing heat loss through the walls. Materials like insulated plasterboards are commonly used.

Are there grants available for internal wall insulation in Ireland?

Yes, in Ireland, you may be eligible for grants through the SEAI’s (Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland) Better Energy Homes Scheme. This can significantly reduce the cost of installing internal wall insulation. It’s worth checking their website for up-to-date details on eligibility and grant amounts.

How long does it take to install internal wall insulation?

For an average-sized property, the installation can take between 5 and 7 days, depending on the complexity of the work and the number of rooms being insulated. Our tradespeople at YourPro work efficiently to minimise disruption.

Will I lose space in my rooms due to internal wall insulation?

Yes, installing internal wall insulation does reduce the room’s overall size, as the material adds a layer to existing walls. Typically, the reduction ranges from 4 to 10cm per wall, depending on the insulation used. However, this is a small trade-off for the long-term energy savings and comfort you’ll enjoy.

Does internal wall insulation help with soundproofing?

Yes, internal wall insulation can improve soundproofing by adding an additional buffer between rooms or between your home and the outside. It’s an excellent choice for reducing noise levels in busy areas.

Do I need to prepare my home before internal wall insulation is installed?

Yes, you’ll need to clear the walls of furniture, fittings, and any obstructions like radiators or curtain rails. Our tradespeople will provide guidance on specific preparations during the consultation process.

Is internal wall insulation suitable for all types of homes in Ireland?
