Begin by conducting a thorough assessment of your existing brick house. Identify areas that may need insulation, considering factors such as drafts, temperature variations, and energy usage patterns.
2. Choose the Right Insulation Material:

Selecting the appropriate insulation material is crucial. Whether it's fiberglass, cellulose, or foam board, each has its unique advantages. Consult with our experts at Eco Green Solutions to determine the best fit for your home and environmental preferences.
3. Affixing Thermal Battens:
To optimize insulation, the process involves affixing thermal battens to the existing brick walls. These battens serve as a framework for the insulation material. At this stage, we prioritize using eco-friendly and sustainable materials to align with our commitment to a greener planet.
4. Damp Proof Membrane for Mold Prevention:
To prevent mold growth and maintain a healthy living environment, the installation process includes affixing a damp proof membrane between the thermal battens and the insulation material. This acts as a protective barrier, ensuring that moisture does not accumulate within the walls.
5. Skim Coating for a Seamless Finish:

The final touch involves skim coating the walls. This process not only provides a smooth and polished appearance but also enhances the durability of the insulation system. Skim coating creates a protective layer that complements the thermal performance of the insulation, contributing to a cohesive and efficient result.
By following this comprehensive process, your existing brick house undergoes a remarkable transformation. The insulation not only improves energy efficiency but also ensures a comfortable and healthy living space.
