The Problem: High heating bills and cold feeling rooms. After a Free Property Survey was completed, we established that the wall cavities were empty and that although there was some loft insulation, it was only 15cm deep, which is well under the recommended level (building regs 27cm). Our Solution: Cavity Wall Insulation using ThermaBead Ltd, a high-quality breathable product, that promotes maximum longevity. Andura Pro-Clear Ultimate (Andura Coatings), a transparent coating that’s applied to the external brickwork. This fully breathable product protects the bricks from the destructive effects of rain, pollution and mould. It’s important for external walls to remain intact when using cavity wall insulation so that water does not pass through. Loft Insulation - 200mm Top Up using Knauf, a premium product for excellent temperature regulation, whether it’s winter or summer. #insulationcontractor #energyefficienthomes

Fun Fact: Roofs are not the only source of leaks in commercial buildings 💧 Exterior walls can become permeable as a result of the constant bombardment of outside elements. UV rays, moisture, dirt, pollutants and temperature changes cause building surfaces to crack, chip, warp and erode, leading to leaks that are often blamed on the roof ☀️ 🌧️ ❄️ 💨 ☀️ 💦 🥶 External wall coatings act as a moisture barrier and protection from outside exposure, extending the longevity of your building’s structure while enhancing its appearance ✨ There are many types of wall coatings so call us to see which is right for your business 913.228.1025 #WallCoatings #WaterDamage #ProtectYourBusiness #FacilityManagement #PropertyManagement

❄️ Snow & Ice: How They Impact Roofing and Cladding ❄️ Winter brings beautiful snow—but it can pose serious challenges to roofing and cladding systems. Proper design and installation are crucial to ensure durability and performance. Here’s why: 🔨 Increased Load Stress: Snow and ice accumulation can add significant weight, causing stress on the roofing structure. Cladding must be robust enough to handle these extra loads without deformation. 💧 Freeze-Thaw Cycles: Water can seep into small gaps, then freeze and expand, leading to cracks, leaks, or material degradation. High-quality cladding and proper sealing help prevent this damage. 🌨️ Wind-Driven Ice & Snow: Coastal and high-altitude areas often experience high winds that push snow and ice against cladding, testing its strength and waterproofing capabilities. At Cladproof, we prioritize using materials and techniques designed to withstand extreme weather, ensuring long-lasting protection and performance. #CladProof #RoofingAndCladding #WinterWeather #SnowLoad #IceLoad #BuildingDurability #WeatherResilience #ConstructionInnovation
