Insulation & energy surveys in Dublin 4

Insulation and energy surveys in Dublin 4, from Sandymount and Donnybrook red-brick terraces to large period homes on Ailesbury and Shrewsbury Road.

Homes in Dublin 4

Victorian and Edwardian red-brick terraces in Donnybrook, Sandymount and Sydney Parade, larger period semis and detached homes on Ailesbury and Shrewsbury, and modern apartments and townhouses toward the docklands.

Large period homes have high ceilings, big sash windows, solid walls and suspended floors, so their heating demand is high and BERs of E to G are common despite good maintenance. Sandymount homes near the strand are also exposed to sea wind. Modern apartments mainly benefit from airtightness and ventilation checks.

Planning and conservation: Much of Dublin 4 is within Architectural Conservation Areas, and protected structures are common on Ailesbury, Shrewsbury and Pembroke Road.

For extensions, carpentry and whole-house retrofits in Dublin 4, our parent company MZCC.ie covers the same area.
