Underfloor insulation comes in glasswool, polystyrene and polyester options. We also install moisture barriers.

Note: the higher the R-value of a product the more insulating ability it has. Similar R-value products will perform the same regardless of their material.

Underfloor polyester blanket

95% of our underfloor installs use polyester blanket. It’s easy to install and applicable to virtually all homes. It’s also highly durable and moisture resistant.

Underfloor glasswool polyester blanket

Not very durable, not pleasant to install. PinkBatts SnugFloor range needs to be strapped whereas Earthwool have a range encompassed in a plastic sheet. We avoid installing it.  

Underfloor polystyrene insulation

Expol polystyrene insulation is the gold-standard for homes in high wind zones where the sub-floor cavity is exposed. As it comes in rigid form it is ‘wind-wash’ resistant.  Polystyrene insulation is best suited for applications where the floor joists widths are consistent. Older homes where this is not the case are an absolute nightmare to get a tidy and efficient result. We do not recommend.

FAQ's

I have existing foil insulation?

Foil insulation is no longer seen as an efficient or acceptable option. Foil insulation works through reflection and requires the foil to be shiny. Over time it dulls and does tend to degrade. It needs to be removed before installing any new insulation.

There isn’t a lot of room underneath the home..

We enjoy and welcome all challenges.

How long does it take to install underfloor insulation?

An average 90 sqm2 home can be completed in 4-5 hours.

Wind-wash?

Negative impact of wind (up to 25%) on insulations performance. Experienced by non-rigid materials like glasswool/fibreglass and polyester.

Kaiser Insulation has been amazing to deal with. Alex is a absolutely champion, really friendly and easy to deal with and did a amazing job at insulating both our ceiling and external and internal walls. Competitive pricing and great result so would highly recommend! Thanks again!
Alex is super friendly and gets the job done. The communication was easy and the installation was smooth. They tidied up when they finished the job and even wiped the door frame and wall with wet tissues just in case there were dust escaped from their protective wear. Highly recommended!
