External wall insulation in Kildare
We install certified Baumit external wall insulation systems across County Kildare, covering Naas, Newbridge, Celbridge, Maynooth, Leixlip, Clane, Kilcock, and Sallins. Direct in-house installation crews, SEAI grants up to €8,000 deducted directly from your invoice, and bespoke aluminium window sills fabricated by our sister workshop, Cills.ie.
Commuter belt estates & detached rural dwellings
County Kildare contains thousands of suburban commuter homes built from the 1970s through the 2000s, alongside older detached rural homes and bungalows. Many of these properties suffer from cold uninsulated external walls and high winter heating bills. Wrapping the exterior with Baumit breathable insulation stops cold bridging, upgrades the BER rating, and seals the building envelope permanently.
Detached homes in Kildare with high exposed wall areas qualify for the maximum €8,000 SEAI grant deduction, while semi-detached homes receive €6,000. Our direct crews handle scaffolding, board fixing, and silicone rendering.
Under Kildare County Council planning regulations, external wall insulation is exempted development for standard residential houses. We verify boundary clearances and reveal depths during our initial physical survey.

Frequently asked questions in Kildare
How much does external wall insulation cost in County Kildare?+
For a typical 3-bedroom semi-detached or detached home in Kildare (Naas, Newbridge, Celbridge, Maynooth, Leixlip, Straffan), external wall insulation costs between €13,000 and €19,000 before grants.

Do I need planning permission for external wall insulation in Kildare?+
In County Kildare, external insulation is generally considered exempted development under Kildare County Council planning rules, provided the insulation thickness does not encroach on public paths and the external finish is in keeping with the surrounding area. If your property is a Protected Structure or in an Architectural Conservation Area in historic towns like Naas, Leixlip, or Maynooth, consult Kildare County Council.
Why install Baumit external insulation on Kildare homes?+
Kildare's inland climate experiences high humidity, hard winter frosts, and driving rain. Uninsulated concrete block walls absorb ground moisture and cold air. We install NSAI-certified Baumit systems with vapour-permeable EPS and self-cleaning silicone topcoats that keep outer walls dry, prevent heat loss, and resist algae bloom.
How long do your crews take on site in Kildare?+
A standard Kildare residential house wrap takes 2 to 3 weeks from scaffolding erection to final render application, weather permitting. All work is conducted externally.
