ETICS in Dublin's Northwall
This 19th Century home has a fantastic location, but access to work on the back was made tricky by the presence of a rather large railway line. But once we finished our complete insulating makeover the residents now live in a stylish and comfortable home. A home that they can afford to heat!

ETICS in Clondalkin
In Clondalkin this home had a very heavy wet dash finish, which the householder could not stand. Now the house has a full layer of external insulation and a smooth acrylic render finish.
Before -------------------------------------------------After
ETICS in Dundrum
This house in Dundrum, like many homes in Dublin has a brick section at the front. A fresh insulated layer of Isoklinker brick keeps the same look and feel while meeting today's rigorous insulation standards. Most of the house was finished with a render and half of the front elevation was done with brick.

ETICS in Cabra
A home in Cabra, Dublin 7 needed a total revamp. Regardless of how much heating was used the house was never warm. We insulated the vast majority of the walls using external insulation and the sections behind the brick was done with internal insulation.
Before -------------------------------------------------After
ETICS in Rathmines
This house in Rathmines had been extended many times in many different styles. So as well as being cold it need as face lift. The landlord was keen to retain his tenents in the face of serious price competition from newly built blocks.
AVAL External Insulation solved both problems!
Before -------------------------------------------------After
ETICS in Merrion
This modern extension in Dublin 4 also needed a makeover, as a room it was so cold it was almost unusable. Adding AVAL External Insulation made the room a real part of the home.
Before -------------------------------------------------After
ETICS in Kilcoole
In other cases the project aim is to keep the existing look of the house. Such as this single story home in North Co. Wicklow. The development has a homogeneous look and the client wanted to be in keeping with that look. The careful choice of finish and proper attention to detail in fitting of the EWIS was key to an excellent job.

ETICS in Malahide
Larger homes can also benefit inconspicuously, such as this two story home in Malahide. The client wanted the house to be as warm as possible while not looking noticeably different from the neighbours'. In this case the External Insulation System extends just 110mm from the existing wall and blends right in.

ETICS in Kilmainham
For this terraced home in Dublin 8 the addition of an External Wall Insulation System has transformed the house into a cosy home. The householder wanted to get away from the wet dash finish to a smooth acrylic or monocouche type finish as well as get a warm home. At the same time the householder wanted to keep the look of the terrace intact. You can see from these photos below if that it fits right in.

ETICS in Clane
All the residents of this 1970s estate in Clane Co Kildare mentioned how poorly insulated their homes were. The walls were build of hollow blocks with just a layer of plaster on the inside, which caused huge heating bills. Our calculations show that these walls had a U value of about 1.6 W/m2K. Adding a 100 mm layer of Carbon enhanced Polystyrene with a Lamda value of 0.031 W/mK pushed the U value comfortably below the current Irish building regulation value of 0.27 W/m2K. Which is the all important figure to secure the HES grant. Since PowerWall are an NSAI approved supplier of EWIS, reaching the required U-Value is all that the client required to draw down the grant.
