Insulation & energy surveys in Mount Merrion

Insulation and energy surveys in Mount Merrion, whose consistent 1950s and 1960s semis share the same construction, so the upgrade path is well understood.

Homes in Mount Merrion

1950s and 1960s estate housing on consistent layouts, mostly semi-detached, with generous gardens.

Because the estate was built to a small number of house types, the same weaknesses come up again and again: walls that may be early cavity or solid block depending on the phase, attic insulation from a later top-up that has settled, uninsulated floors and draughty original hatches. Ratings are typically D1 to E1.

Planning and conservation: Most of Mount Merrion allows external insulation as exempted development, though consistency of the streetscape is worth considering.

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