Building Regulation Changes Regarding Insulation in Roofs: Why Clockwork Screed's Poured Insulation is an Ideal Choice

When it comes to building or renovating a property, one of the most important considerations is insulation. Effective insulation can make a significant difference in energy efficiency, comfort, and the overall cost of maintaining a building. Here’s why poured insulation, such as the solutions offered by Clockwork Screed, is a smart choice for property owners, builders, and contractors. Poured insulation is a liquid material that is poured directly onto the subfloor to create a continuous thermal layer. Unlike traditional insulation boards, which can be cumbersome to install and often leave gaps, poured insulation fills every space evenly, ensuring there are no cold spots or areas where heat can escape. One of the primary advantages of poured insulation is its ability to enhance energy efficiency. By providing a seamless thermal barrier, it helps retain heat in the winter and keeps the building cool in the summer. This means that heating and cooling systems don’t have to work as hard, resulting in lower energy bills and reduced energy consumption.

Underfloor heating is known for its efficiency and comfort, making it an excellent choice for care homes, retirement homes, and bungalows.

Climate change is no longer a distant threat, and its impact is being felt around the world, including the UK. The construction industry, a major contributor to greenhouse gas emissions and resource consumption, is undergoing a crucial shift towards sustainability.

Screed is a thin layer of material applied to a subfloor to create a smooth, level surface for the final floor covering, such as tile, carpet, or hardwood. It ensures a uniform base for the flooring material to be installed upon, eliminating any unevenness that could affect performance or aesthetics.
