Grants For Free Underfloor Insulation

If your home has suspended timber floors on the ground floor theres a good chance that they’re pretty draughty and uninsulated. You can add rolls of fibreglass wool between the floor joists held in place with chicken wire or use Kingspan boards cut to size and held up with wooden struts across the joist

A small amount of heat is lost whatever floor type you have, be it concrete or suspended wooden floor.

Insulating your floors should save you around £50 per year in heat savings.

Whilst it is a very small saving, it is very much worthwhile. This involves insulating the space below the flooring and will involve taking up the floor for access. You don’t need to insulate the floors of upstairs rooms in your house if they’re above heated spaces, such as the living room.

Rugs and carpets on the floor will also help your feet feel warmer, which might mean you don’t feel the need to put the heating on as much.

Saves you £60 per year Average cost £15 -£20 per roll – Diy cost around £100 per room.

Concrete floors

New houses will have a ground floor made of solid concrete.

Solid floors are insulated using rigid insulation foam, which can be fitted either above or below the concrete. This will raise the level of the floor, so you will need to trim doors down. and move skirting boards and some electrical sockets.

If the concrete is above the insulation it can store heat during the day, which helps to keep the room warm at night. If the insulation is above the concrete the room will heat up more quickly in the morning. You have to insulate a solid floor when it is replaced in order to comply with building regulations. The finished floor should achieve a U-value of 0.25 W/m2K or less.
