Three elevations insulated, and a structural problem nobody else had spotted
A property developer and landlord approached us regarding a newly purchased property in Beeston. Initially intended as a home for his son, the long-term plan was to convert it into a House of Multiple Occupancy (HMO).

Read the projectA Nottingham home that works with you, not against you.
With rising energy costs and unpredictable UK weather, upgrading a character property in Nottinghamshire isn't just a standard home improvement; it's a definitive future-proofing decision. These are the problems we hear about most often, and each one has a physical cause that can be fixed.
“The heating is on constantly and it still feels cold.”
This can be done to trapped air in the radiators, poor insulation, hidden draughts or even something as simple as radiators blocked by furniture. Our site survey will reveal the problems so we can identify the solutions.
What is causing it“The same corner goes black every winter.”
Condensation and mould is bad for your home and bad for your health, caused by lack of airflow and insufficient insulation. But you’re not alone and we’ll find a lasting resolution to restore balance and harmony once again.
What is causing it“You cannot sleep up there in July.”
Extremes of temperature in loft rooms causing you issues during the summer months? Feel like you can’t use the space as you’d like? Let us come and take a look.
What is causing it“You can feel the draught coming up through the floor.”
Draughty spots along the skirting boards are not uncommon, with cold air leaking up through gaps - but you don’t have to put up with it! We can help you make your home far more comfortable and cheaper to run.
What is causing it“We had insulation fitted and it made things worse.”
Trapped moisture, cold bridges and poor ventilation can continue to cause problems even after insulation has been fitted if the work has been done poorly or inappropriate materials are used. But we can fix it for you.
What we do about it“I have an EPC telling me to spend £20,000.”

What people say after living with the work, not the week the scaffold came down. Printed whole, with nothing edited out.
External wall insulation is a big investment, so I did a lot of research before deciding on Cobalt Carbon Free. It has been like living in a different house. In the winter the house heats up so much faster, and holds the heat for a long time. It has also stayed much cooler in the summer. And all our damp and mould issues have disappeared.
“In our 1906 house, whenever I went upstairs a blast of cold air met me, as the upstairs walls have only one course of bricks. Since Cobalt put the exterior insulation on it has made a huge difference. Even the bedroom with three external walls is warm now. Before, it never got warm.”
“Once the scaffolding was up it became very clear that the roof was the reason for the damaged render. The damp that was constant is already drying out and I am looking forward to a warm winter.”
We publish our price ranges. Almost nobody in this trade does.
