Very often, we look to renovation as a way to make our homes more energy efficient. After all, living in an energy efficient home has so many benefits; lower energy costs, greater comfort, a more valuable property, and it’s kinder to the environment as it reduces our emissions. We spend approximately 90 percent of our lives indoors, and it’s our right to live, learn, work and recover in buildings that are comfortable and safe.

Four key focus areas

Roof renovation

Want to put a lid on your energy bill? You could be losing as much as 25 percent of your heating through your roof if you do not have adequate insulation installed. Renovating your roof with modern insulating materials like stone wool could reduce your energy costs and help make your home more comfortable.

Exterior renovation

Poorly insulated external wall and surfaces will lead to heat loss, increased energy costs and and a poor indoor climate. Think about it - your external walls are the single largest surface area of your house and therefore also where the greatest amount of heat is transfered between your home and the outside environment. As such, the insulation in your walls plays a major role in reducing energy cost - and it's a perfect excuse to give your home a fresh, new look!
