With just one upgrade, you can dramatically improve your home’s energy efficiency, comfort, and appearance.

External Wall Insulation, commonly known as “The Wrap”, is one of the most effective upgrades available to homeowners and landlords in Ireland today.

What Is External Wall Insulation?

External Wall Insulation involves fixing insulation boards to the outside of your home and finishing it with render or cladding.

This creates a protective thermal layer, reducing heat loss and improving your home’s overall performance, especially in older properties with solid walls and no cavity.

At Envirobead, External Wall Insulation is one of the most popular upgrades for homeowners looking to improve comfort and reduce energy usage.

Why Choose External Wall Insulation?

Many Irish homes lose a significant amount of heat through poorly insulated walls, particularly those built before modern standards.

“The Wrap” works by sealing your home in a high-performance insulation layer, delivering:

  • Lower Energy Bills
    Reduce heat loss and cut heating costs significantly
  • Improved Comfort & Air Quality
    Reduce draughts, damp, and mould
  • Quieter Living Spaces
    Added sound insulation from outside noise
  • Enhanced Appearance
    Modernise the exterior of your home
  • Increased Property Value
    Improve BER rating and market appeal

Is External Wall Insulation Right for Your Home?

“The Wrap” is ideal for homes that:

  • Have little or no insulation
  • Have solid wall construction
  • Are undergoing renovation
  • Need a BER improvement for grants or future-proofing

If your home has existing finishes you want to preserve, internal insulation may be a better option and we’ll advise you honestly on that.

What To Expect From Installation

The process starts with a home assessment by a qualified advisor.

From there:

  • You receive clear recommendations and pricing
  • Grants are assessed and applied for
  • Installation is completed externally with minimal disruption

Most of the work is carried out outside, so you can continue your day as normal.
