Insulation Rendering Gloucester
Insulating your external walls is a great way to save money on your energy bills and is known to increase property value. This benefits homeowners and massively benefits commercial properties (as they tend to use more energy each day and per year). Insulation combines perfectly with rendering, as you are able to insulate the inside of the wall and then apply the rendering to protect the insulation from the elements.
Up to 35% of all the heat in your property in the winter is lost through your walls. When your heating is on, this makes the system less efficient and makes it cost more to run. This is because walls absorb heat from your heating and also allow the cold to permeate through the walls into your property. If you combine insulation rendering with other insulation products, such as loft insulation and upgrading windows and doors, you can see significant savings in your energy bills.

When is it Time to Upgrade or Replace Your Current Render?
Many projects involve upgrading and enhancing the current render on residential or commercial properties. This is where our expertise comes into play – we can improve your current render or provide a complete replacement when required. There are multiple signs that your render might need attention or replacement.
Wall cracking is one of the primary reasons property owners seek render repair or replacement. Cracks make walls appear worn and tired, while damage to this protective layer can leave your building vulnerable. When wall insulation shows through render damage, replacement or improvement becomes crucial.
Bulging and soft patches represent another clear sign that render needs repair or replacement. These issues suggest the adhesion has failed, which allows moisture to get in and damage the wall. This leads to various potential problems, especially with structural walls, requiring render removal and new system installation. Damp areas on walls often appear with this particular problem.
Testing your render by tapping with a hammer or chisel helps determine if the render still has proper adhesion to the wall. This is useful since damage between rendering and wall surfaces isn’t always obvious. Hollow sounds when tapping usually indicate the render needs re-adhesion, which typically means improving your old render.
In serious cases, rendering damage can affect the wall’s structural integrity. We assist all clients by preparing the existing render for improvement, or we can remove the render when we arrive, before applying new rendering. We offer render consultation and can review photographs to provide professional advice. Whether your rendering needs repair or improvement, we work on both commercial and residential properties.

Rendering is often combined with insulation rendering or external wall insulation to massively increase the efficiency of properties. As up to 35% of the heat in a property is lost from inefficient walls, upgrading your external walls with insulation saves you money on your energy bills and is well known to increase overall property value.
Rendering is used to improve the look of the exterior of properties and walls that aren’t attached to properties. There is a wide range of different finishes to choose from, which allows you to choose your desired style. This also increases property value as your property becomes more attractive to buyers when it’s time to sell.
One of the most popular uses for rendering is to replace, repair or upgrade the current render. If your wall already has rendering on it, then you will know that rendering is appropriate, and you can upgrade your render whenever you want or when a problem exists.
If you are thinking about rendering your walls or are interested in external wall insulation, rendering is used on walls that are made out of brick or stonework. We can advise you on whether your walls are appropriate for rendering. These are usually on houses from the late Victorian period or slightly later for external walls. Most external walls are built out of brick or stone, so they are appropriate for rendering. Get in touch to find out more if you have any questions about your current walls.
Up to 35% of all heat lost is from inefficient walls. Walls absorb heat, which makes it much hotter in the winter, and they also absorb heat from heating systems – meaning it takes longer and takes more energy to heat the home in the winter. External wall insulation is added as an inside layer to the rendering, and this is how we insulate properties with rendering. The rendering is then applied to keep the insulated layer protected from the elements. This keeps your property insulated. As you will save a significant amount on your energy bills in the winter, this also increases the overall value of your property. Combined with other insulation, this can amount to colossal savings over many years.
If your render becomes chipped or damaged, then this can cause potential environmental damage to the insulation material. You should also regularly inspect your walls for mould build-up, as well as damp patches or warping. This could also indicate that water has managed to penetrate the insulation, which will make the insulation less efficient over time. Lightly tapping the render can also indicate if it’s become unbonded, if you can hear hollow sounds when you tap it. You can tap the render with a chisel or hammer lightly.
Rendering makes your property look better, which makes it more popular when it’s time to sell. If your walls are showing signs of wear and tear or just don’t look new anymore, then rendering massively improves the look of the property, and this makes it more appealing when it’s time to sell. It will also make the property look better when it’s time to advertise it.
Combining rendering with external wall insulation (insulation rendering) saves you money on your energy bills, so this will always increase your overall property value. This is particularly the case for commercial buildings, as they will save more money on energy bills, since they use much more energy each day than homes do.
