Retrofit Insulation

Houses built in New Zealand before the year 2000 are likely to require new insulation to be retrofitted. Retrofitting insulation into the ceiling and underfloor cavities of an existing house is dangerous confined space work that you shouldn't consider doing yourself without previous experience. Better Homes retrofit crews have developed their own tricks of the trade to achieve high standards of workmanship and safety with as little impact on your home as possible.

Ceiling Insulation

Uninsulated ceilings can be responsible for up to 42% of heat loss in your home, therefore it's vital that your ceiling be insulated. If your ceiling space has adequate access our retrofit teams can have the overhead spaces in your home fitted out with your choice of cost effective insulation in a matter of hours. Even ceilings that have been previously insulated can benefit from top up insulation to bring it back up to spec. Call to make an appointment and have us assess your ceiling for free.

Underfloor Insulation

Surprisingly a further 10% of the heat in your home is lost through the floor, we all know that heat rises but what most of us don't realise is cold air can be sucked up through the floor. Fitting underfloor insulation to your home is another major improvement we can help you with that has virtually no structural impact on your home while provide the many benefits of a well insulated home.
