Triple Glazing
They are beautifully manufactured and factory finished in Europe for low maintenance and come in a variety of colours and stains. They can even be clad in aluminium for extra durability.

Insulation
Our houses are amongst the best insulated in the UK
The Ceiling
Depending on the roof design the insulation consists of a waterproof breathable membrane,22 mm of treated laminated ply board,100 mm of Kingspan and then will either be open if a loft or another 125mm of Rockwool will be added before the plasterboard is attached in the case of a vaulted finish.
The walls
Whatever the finish you have on the outside the walls will always have, a covering of a waterproof breathable membrane, 15mm of treated laminated ply board,100 mm of Kingspan followed by 80mm of Rockwool before 15mm plasterboard is attached.
The Floor
On top of the ventilated concrete block and beam floor there will be a layer of 65mm Kingspan, the underfloor piping and then a 75 mm concrete screed.

All of these minimum measures will ensure your home is extremely well insulated and quiet.
This will result in your heating bills being cut by more than 50% on the average UK home.

Rain Water Harvester
Did you know that by installing a RWH you can save all the rain that falls on your roof throughout the year, have the water filtered to be used to, irrigate your garden, wash your car or be used as ‘grey water’ to flush your toilets and even use in your washing machine!

Air Circulation System
We use the Norwegian system developed by Villovent to ensure that your extremely well insulated house does not loose its heat, become stuffy and handles steam from bathrooms and the kitchen.

Home Vacuum System
The benefits of fitting a central vacuum system is that you no longer need to carry around a heavy vacuum cleaner. Simply plug in your hoover pipe in the socket in each room and switch on. All the dust is collected quietly to a central point usually in the garage from where it can be easily emptied and disposed of.
