  1. I understood it was staying in wales just relocating. Yes they did get brought and are trading as normal
  2. Have you tried Durisol as they do the 30/10 i believe and it may be a easier option if they will do small quantities? Have you done an extension or new build?
  3. Does anyone remember a company that ran under the name: CRS Future build? https://www.homebuilding.co.uk/sourcebook/company/crs-future-build Jamie was involved in the company back in Durisol days and that’s who invoices is for the build..
  4. I’m close to leaving Isotex yes as may cause me to many problems. I’m not crossing off using similar blocks though I have to disagree with the air tightness, I built in Durisol and my air tightness (sap) test was unreal! I had it carried on on water tightness AND completion of everything. Inside had no issues with l, and I used the 170 internal walls. From raft to watertight we completed in 10 days so going to EPS which needs different things and fixing to it later is not close to woodcrete blocks (just my view) have you built in Woodcrete AND EPS?
  5. I’ve been told they sold into InsulHub but not for awhile and are owed money from InsulHub It’s more certification for the UK I think that needs understanding before than the offer, as if they offer 60% discount but not approved in UK then that’s an issue, no? What do they need to have for approved UK banks, insurance, building control etc..
  6. Yes I agree, I think I know the other company you are referring to? (D..) if so I dealt with them before and had no issues! with Isotex certifications with European does anyone know it that stands as standard build or not? I may give BBA a call to see what their stance is
  7. So it looks like I'm not alone in this situation.. Back in 2017 I completed a new build using Jamie and Durisol. Up until roughly 2021/22 I had was not doing builds instead renovations, but 21/22 my in-laws had decided to have an extension which I was managing, I then got in contact with Jamie and now InsulHub where long discussions we had and meetings to finally decide to go ahead with IsoTex blocks through InsulHud. I was due delivery December 22 but was told will be early 23. We are now in April and still no blocks with a garden as a building site and footings poured. We met InsulHub at the NEC to be told our blocks will be delivered the following week and after a number of calls and emails to no answer I think find the message on their website...GREAT (polite term) In the last 24hrs I have had talks with IsoTex in italy regarding the situation. I noticed Durisol went under last year but someone bought the company and its now back trading still in wales under the name Durisol and Eco Build Store... I know InsulHub resigned from ICFA Feb 23. With Isotex holding certifications where do we stand if we buy direct? So with the unknown and having to explain to my In-Laws we have a problem houston I am now lost what to do!
