What is External Wall Insulation?
External wall insulation involves attaching a layer of insulation panels to the outside of your property. These panels are then finished with a protective render or cladding, which not only improves energy efficiency but also gives your home a fresh, modern appearance.
Key Features of External Wall Insulation:
- Weatherproof Protection: Shields your walls from the elements, preventing damp and moisture ingress.
- Customisable Finishes: Choose from a range of finishes, including smooth, textured, tiled, painted or brick/stone effect, to suit your style.
- Space Saving: Installed externally, so it doesn’t reduce your property’s interior floor area.
- Sound Resistance: Increases soundproofing for a quieter, more comfortable home.
Benefits of External Wall Insulation
External wall insulation offers a wide range of advantages, making it an excellent investment for any property:
- Lower Energy Bills: Reduces heat loss, helping you save significantly on heating costs.
- Enhanced Comfort: Keeps your home warmer in winter and cooler in summer.
- Improved Property Value: Boosts your home’s kerb appeal and market value with a refreshed exterior.

Is My Manchester Property Suitable for External Wall Insulation?
External wall insulation is an excellent solution for improving energy efficiency, but your property must meet specific criteria to ensure it is suitable for installation. Here are the key requirements:
- Solid Wall Construction: Your property should have solid brick, stone or concrete walls rather than cavity walls that can be insulated in other ways.
- Structurally Sound Walls: The walls must be in good condition, free from major damage and not in need of significant repairs.
- Not a Listed Building or Conservation Area: Properties that are listed, located in a conservation area or part of a world heritage site are generally not eligible for external wall insulation due to planning restrictions.
- No Damp Issues: The walls should be free from damp or moisture problems, as insulation may exacerbate existing issues.
- Adequate Access: There must be sufficient access to the property’s external walls to allow for the installation process.
- Uninsulated Walls: External wall insulation is suitable for solid walls that do not already have cavity insulation.
