Insulation Installers Scotland specialises in providing tailored, vapour-open insulation solutions for Scottish homes, from historic tenements to modern family houses. They focus on a design-led approach, assessing each property's unique moisture handling characteristics to specify appropriate materials like hemp, wood wool, and lime plaster. This ensures that the insulation works in harmony with traditional building fabrics, particularly solid stone walls, avoiding common pitfalls of one-size-fits-all systems.
The company is accredited and grant-eligible, holding TrustMark registration and PAS 2030 certification, which allows their installations to qualify for Home Energy Scotland funding. They guide homeowners through the grant application process, often meaning clients pay only a fraction of the cost. Insulation Installers Scotland employs its own crew, avoiding subcontractors, and offers a 25-year workmanship guarantee, with payment due only after completion.
They pride themselves on providing honest advice, even advising against insulation if it's not suitable for a particular property.
