Why St Albans homes benefit from external wall insulation
St Albans has one of the most varied housing stocks in Hertfordshire: Victorian and Edwardian terraces around St Peters and the city centre, 1930s semis in Fleetville and Marshalswick, and post-war homes in Cottonmill and How Wood. Many of these have solid walls that lose heat fast and suffer from damp patches and tired brickwork.
An insulated render system wraps the outside of the house in EPS, Rockwool or Kingspan boards and finishes it with a durable silicone, scratch, brick-effect or pebble dash render. The result: warmer rooms, lower bills, protected brickwork and a fresh, modern façade – without losing any interior space.
