Boost Your EPC Rating and Eco Credentials With Thermal Insulation London

We offer a full insulation service under suspended floors i.e under the ground floor of a typical Georgian, Victorian or Edwardian property.

Period properties were designed to facilitate a clear air flow underneath them to enable the evaporation of any moisture and condensation coming from the over-site (i.e . the foundations , the earth under the house ) . This necessary circulation of cool air , flowing through the air bricks at the front and rear of the property , can result in draughts between the floorboards and a lower EPC rating for your home. It is estimated the 15 % – 20 % of heat is lost through uninsulated floors.

Our service begins with the lifting of 80 % – 90% of your floor, installing battens on the sides of the joists to support the installation of 750 mm insulation board (Kingspan / Celotex ). Once the insulation has been installed, the boards (that have been numbered prior to lifting ) are laid again in their original position :

1. Floor boards are numbered & carefully lifted

2. Boards and joists are cleaned and de-nailed

3. The oversite is cleared & air bricks inspected.

4. then battens are fixed to the sides of the joists

5. …and fixed down tight onto the battens

6. Insulation board is cut down to size …….

Then the boards are re-laid in their original position & the floor can now be sanded & sealed

This will help boost your EPC rating bearing in mind that The Tories had previously rowed back on their push for a minimum permitted EPC rating of ‘C’ to any prospective landlords by the end of 2025 . Rishi Sunak initially delayed this until 2028 but then announced reductions in the conservative parties green commitments & abandoned both policies .

The Labour Party have recently announced in their manifesto (June 2024) their intention to reverse Sunak’s scrapping of Energy Efficiency standards for landlords .

Whatever your political persuasion and whether you’re a private householder or a landlord managing a rental property , there is no doubt that tougher EPC ratings are going to phased in soon & will be here to stay.

  Dave, Diego and Stick came over to renovate our floors in the property we just purchased. We had no idea what we were getting into, and their communication was flawless with a lot of explanations and what to expect. They were of great advice, efficient and incredibly kind! We are absolutely delighted with how the floor looks like and couldn't believe the difference before/after. We would highly recommend them!

Thanks again for the work you have done :)

  100% Recommend. Have had Dave and Diego do our floors a few times now. You won’t find a more friendly and obliging team. Extremely knowledgeable, reliable and punctual, with great suggestions on colour/tone for newly sanded floors; also have super contacts when it comes to replacing damaged boards.

  We had our wooden floors sanded by the natural floor company and they look amazing! David talked me through the process and Diego carried out the job. They were professional, tidy and did an outstanding job. What more can you ask for! We would highly recommend using them if you want to bring your wood floors back to life.

  The Natural Floor Company were excellent to work with. David and co were organised and helpful from our first enquiry, checking our needs (we're an art studio). Our really grimey and bumpy floor was transformed by their work. See pictures. The work was completed well within the time they estimated and the cost was as agreed. We are thrilled with the results.
Comments from our studio neighbours include 'beautiful' and 'phenomenal'.  Highly recommend.

  Amazing service, high communication, flexible, personable, made every step of the refurb painless and easy. Wasn’t derisive when there were hiccups on my end from this being my first time hiring a contractor. I couldn’t have had a better service nor had better people. Has made my first home beautiful and long lasting. 10/10 highly recommend, will be recommending to friends and family.

  I can not say enough good things about the natural floor company. David and Diego really know what they are talking about and deliver and then some with the final product. I inherited engineered wood flooring with a house I purchased, I am not even sure how old the floor was, but it had been exhausted by the previous owner and tenants. They literally bought the floor back to life, and it looks brand new. Knowledge, hard work and a quick turn around. I googled the process and came across them via a search, and picked them based on reviews and location, and very glad I did. Amazing people, and I hope this company only grows. Fully recommend. Infact my family have saved their details incase needed.
