Solid Wall Insulation In Scotland
Solid wall insulation in Scotland is one of the most effective ways to reduce energy loss in older homes. Most traditional Scottish properties have solid walls that lose heat quickly without proper insulation.
Solid Wall Insulation in Scotland
Scotland has thousands of older homes built with solid walls that lose heat fast. These walls have no gap for cavity insulation, which means they let out up to 45% of internal heat — making your home colder and your energy bills higher.
Solid wall insulation is the most effective way to fix this. Whether you’re in Edinburgh, Glasgow, Aberdeen, Dundee, or a rural village, insulating solid walls gives your home the comfort, efficiency, and value it needs.
Why Your Home Needs Solid Wall Insulation
If your home was built before the 1920s, it likely has solid walls. These are strong but poor at retaining heat. Scottish winters can be harsh, and without insulation, your heating system works harder and costs more.
Solid wall insulation helps by:
Reducing energy bills by up to 40%
Improving internal comfort in both winter and summer
Preventing damp, mould, and cold spots
Boosting your property’s EPC rating (Energy Performance Certificate)
Adding value to your home
Meeting Scottish Government energy efficiency standards
Internal vs. External Wall Insulation In Scotland
We offer both internal and external solid wall insulation, based on your property type and goals:
1. Internal Wall Insulation (IWI)
Installed inside your home using rigid boards or stud walls
Ideal for listed buildings or properties where external changes aren’t allowed
Minimal disruption with high thermal performance
Great option for individual rooms or partial insulation projects
2. External Wall Insulation (EWI)
Applied to the outer surface of your property
Includes layers of insulation and a protective finish (render or cladding)
Transforms the look of your home while improving energy efficiency
Best for full-home insulation, especially in exposed areas
