Local Knowledge

Building conditions in County Galway

Galway's coastal areas around Connemara and the Atlantic seaboard need EWI systems specified for driving rain and salt exposure, with properly reinforced basecoats and mesh. Around Galway City, Oranmore and Claregalway, the rapid pace of new residential development increasingly uses EWI over blockwork as part of energy-efficient thermal packages. Inland towns like Tuam, Athenry and Ballinasloe have older cavity-block homes that benefit from external insulation to improve thermal comfort and BER ratings.

Connemara stone and granite houses (breathable EWI systems with wood fibre or mineral wool)
Cavity-block housing from the 1970s–2000s (EPS EWI with render finish for thermal upgrade)
New-build housing around Galway City and commuter belt (EWI as part of energy-efficient packages)
ICF construction (insulated render systems over ICF substrates)
Commercial and mixed-use buildings in Galway City (mineral wool EWI for fire-rated applications)

Do I Need External Insulation?

How to tell if your County Galway home needs EWI

Your house may benefit from external solid wall insulation if you notice any of the following signs. If your home displays any of them, we can assess your property and recommend a tailored insulation solution.

Cold Walls

Cold walls and draughts throughout the property indicate poor insulation.

Uneven Temperatures

Uneven temperatures in different rooms are a common issue in poorly insulated houses.

High Energy Bills

More heating is required to maintain a comfortable temperature in an insufficiently insulated home.

Old Properties

An older property that has not undergone insulation upgrades will benefit from external wall insulation.

Dampness or Mould

Dampness or mould visible on interior walls is often caused by inadequate insulation.
