Meeting PAS 2035 Standards for Heritage Properties

Retrofitting a listed building is not just about adding insulation; it is about managing moisture movement and protecting the structure for future generations. We operate as a PAS 2030 accredited team, strictly following PAS 2035 whole-house retrofit standards to ensure every installation is safe and effective. By focusing on breathable insulation systems, we address thermal bridging and prevent the common issues of damp and condensation that often plague traditional stone or solid-wall constructions in our area. Our approach ensures your property remains comfortable throughout the winter while meeting modern energy efficiency requirements.

How Do We Protect Your Listed Property Features?

We take a careful, diagnostic approach to every project. Our specialists begin with a professional retrofit assessment to identify exactly where your home is losing heat. Once we understand the specific needs of your building, we install bespoke insulation, such as high-performance internal wall insulation, which is specifically designed for heritage builds. Because we prioritise breathable materials, we ensure that the building continues to regulate moisture naturally. This keeps your home warmer, improves your EPC rating, and safeguards the building fabric from long-term damage.

A Seamless End-to-End Restoration Service

One of the benefits of working with us is our ability to manage the entire process from initial assessment to the final decorative finish. While Global Energy Insulation focuses on the technical thermal upgrades and PAS 2035 compliance, our sister company, Global Plastering, handles all traditional internal finishes. This means you do not need to coordinate multiple contractors. We provide a complete end-to-end service, ensuring that once your insulation is installed, your walls are expertly plastered and restored to their original beauty.

Compliance, Planning, and Local Expertise

Navigating the regulations for Grade I or II listed properties can be complex, especially when dealing with local planning authorities in Rhondda Cynon Taf. We handle the technical compliance for you, ensuring that all our work aligns with both building regulations and conservation area guidelines. As a SWIGA-backed and CHAS-accredited firm, we offer the professional reassurance you need. We are fully insured and hold a valid waste carriers licence, meaning every stage of our work is carried out to the highest standard of professional accountability.

Heritage Property FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about breathable historic building insulation, thermal bridging solutions, and PAS 2035 compliance across South Wales and South West England and South Wales.

Do I need planning permission to insulate my listed building in Ferndale?

+

Yes, in most cases, you will need Listed Building Consent for internal or external wall insulation. Because these works change the thickness of the walls or the materials used, local planning officers want to see that the heritage of the building is being protected. We can help provide the technical details needed for your application.

Why shouldn't I use cheap foam insulation on an old stone wall?

+

Old buildings were designed to be "breathable." Moisture travels through the stones and mortar and evaporates. If you put non-breathable foam against the wall, you trap that moisture. This leads to "interstitial condensation," which rots floor joists and causes damp patches. We use breathable wood fibre or mineral wool to keep your walls healthy.

Will I lose the original features like my coving or skirting boards?

+

We do everything we can to preserve the character of your home. Sometimes this involves carefully removing and reinstating skirting boards or using thinner, high-performance insulation in areas with intricate decorative features. Our partnership with Global Plastering allows us to replicate traditional finishes so your home looks exactly as it should—only warmer.

How long does it take to insulate a period property?

+

Every building is unique, but a typical internal wall insulation project for a terraced house usually takes between one and two weeks. This includes the preparation, the insulation fixings, and the specialist lime plastering finish.
