External wall insulation

In 2018, SBS began a £920,000 scheme for The Vale of Glamorgan Council, which involved re-roofing and fitting solid wall insulation to 76 occupied properties. The scheme is now nearing completion, with many local families already enjoying warmer homes and lower heating bills.

Located within 14 residential blocks in Barry, South Wales, the properties have been fitted with a BBA-certified external wall insulation system manufactured by the British manufacturer Soltherm. It comprises EPS insulation and an acrylic render.

Social housing provider, Derby Homes has awarded SBS a number one ranking in its new four-year framework for external wall insulation services.

The organisation's Insulation Installations Framework covers  a variety of energy efficiency measures and has a potential value of up to £4 million over four years. It awarded Sustainable Building Services (SBS) a place under two categories of work: Schedule 1, Lot 3 - External Wall Insulation; and Schedule 2 - External Render Repairs.

In the closing stages of a three-phase refurbishment scheme for Bolsover District Council, SBS has been applauded for its flexibility, its commitment to quality and its readiness to help the client deliver a successful project.

As part of its work for Nottingham City Homes, SBS recently visited local schools to talk to children about site safety and careers in the building industry for women.

Sustainable Building Services (UK) Limited has won a £3.5 million project to install external wall insulation to 558 properties in Chesterfield and Bolsover. The contract was awarded through a four year solid wall insulation framework managed by Efficiency East Midlands (EEM).
