External Wall Insulation in Harrow. For many homeowners with traditional properties, heat loss does not happen evenly. Often, specific architectural features – such as bay windows or thin wall panels – act as massive thermal bridges, allowing expensive central heating to escape rapidly.
For this recent project in Harrow, the goal was to address these specific, highly vulnerable areas. By applying a targeted External Wall Insulation (EWI) system to the sections surrounding the windows, we were able to significantly boost the energy efficiency of the room without needing to render the entire brick facade.
Stopping Localised Heat Escape
The panels below and above windows are notorious for being thin and poorly insulated, pulling the cold in from the outside.
To solve this targeted heat loss, our team applied thick 90mm EPS (Expanded Polystyrene) boards directly to the vulnerable sections. This premium insulation layer immediately cuts off the thermal bridge in these specific zones. Instead of escaping through the thin panels, the warmth is now reflected back into the living space, eliminating cold draughts near the window.
To seamlessly blend this new, highly efficient layer with the existing property, we finished the panels with a premium 1.5mm Silicone Render. The smooth, modern grey finish provides a crisp, contemporary contrast to the traditional brickwork. Furthermore, the silicone is inherently breathable and highly water-resistant, protecting these previously vulnerable sections from dampness and harsh weather.
