What is External Wall Insulation (EWI)?
External Wall Insulation (EWI) involves fixing rigid insulation panels to the outside of your home’s walls, then finishing with a modern weatherproof render or cladding.
Result: Your home feels warmer, looks better, and costs less to heat.
Why choose External Wall Insulation?
Our External Wall Insulation System
We use high-performance EWI systems trusted across Ireland and Europe.
- Insulation Boards: Typically 100mm Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) or Mineral Wool
- Fixing Method: Mechanically fixed + adhesive
- Finish Options: Acrylic render, dry dash, brick slip or colour-tinted coatings
- Breathable, waterproof and long-lasting
Is My Home Suitable?
For costs not covered by grants, this scheme offers low-interest loans to homeowners undertaking energy upgrades.
- Solid wall homes (pre-1980s)
- Homes with poor insulation or constant cold spots
- Properties undergoing renovation or redecoration
- Detached, semi-detached and terraced homes with sufficient external space
If your home has cavity walls, Cavity Wall Insulation may be a more cost-effective solution.
