Because around half of heat loss in a typical home is through the walls and loft, it’s worth checking whether yours are insulated. Use this section to find out more about the different types of insulation and glazing or use our search tool to locate your nearest insulation installer.

Cavity wall insulation


Around a third of all the heat lost in an un-insulated home is lost through the walls. Cavity wall insulation is a fantastic way to significantly reduce the amount of energy you need to heat your home and could save you around £120 a year on your fuel bills.

Solid wall insulation


If you have solid walls you can either insulate them with external or internal insulation, saving you up to £380 a year on your energy bills.

Floor insulation


Gaps and draughts around skirting boards and floors are simple to fix yourself with a tube of sealant bought from most DIY stores. You could save around £40 a year by insulating your floors.
