These days with the advent of new building regulations* and more awareness of increasing energy costs and responsibility towards environmental issues, our homes are insulated better than ever - double glazing, thicker roof insulation and draft excluders. All these measures help considerably to reduce our heating bills and increase the value of our homes.

*New part L1 of Building Regulations 2000 demands higher standards in the construction of new dwellings especially against leakage of a maximum of 10 cubic meters per hour/sqm at 50pa.
