When it comes to retrofit projects, insulation and airtightness go hand in hand.
There is no point upgrading insulation if warm air is still leaking out through gaps, cracks and poorly sealed junctions.
A well-designed retrofit should do both, improve insulation to slow heat loss, and improve airtightness to control unwanted draughts and energy waste.
Why does that matter?
Because good insulation and airtightness can help
* reduce heat loss
* improve comfort
* cut draughts
* lower energy bills
* support better long-term building performance
The key is getting the balance right.
Retrofit is not just about adding more insulation. It is about understanding how the whole building works together walls, floors, roof, junctions, ventilation and moisture movement.
At Total Precision Developments, we look at the full picture to make sure retrofit work performs properly, not just on paper, but in real life.
