Recommendations for EWI in the East Midlands

Hello everyone, 

 

We are renovating our solid brick 1930s house and want to get exterior wall insulation. I have read about many of the problems, and feel that it's vital that we find a reputable company to work with. I think recommendations would be really helpful. We're based near Loughborough. So if anyone can recommend some high-quality installers in the Notts/Derby/Leics area, that would be really helpful. 

Do your research first so you know what you want and how will it be achieved 

you 100% do not want it installed were it pokes out beyond a roof overhang and they simply put a plastic trim on top, I’ve seen it done and it’s very common, I could not believe it was actually a standard thing. 
 

look at all the areas it fails, window cills, window reveals, look at what fails and how to do it properly. 
 

don’t be someone who comes back on here in a year saying it’s a gone wrong. 
get to know how it works so you know as much if not more than the installer. 
 

there’s a lot of snake oil salesmen out there. 
 

good luck.
