Floor Insulation Specialist

Floor Insulation Services in Dublin

At Painting in Colour, we specialise in insulating suspended timber floors across Dublin and surrounding areas. Our expert insulation service not only improves energy efficiency but also protects your home by preventing damp and moisture issues — all while preserving healthy ventilation.

Floor insulation involves adding insulating materials to the ground or bottom floor of a home to reduce heat loss and improve indoor comfort. While at least 8% of heat loss occurs through the floor, the SEAI notes that figure could be as high as 20%—making floor insulation a critical element in any energy-efficient home. Depending on the age and structure of your home, there are generally two types of ground floors:

  1. Concrete Floors – Common in newer homes
  2. Suspended Timber Floors – Often found in older buildings

Why Insulate Suspended Timber Floors?

We provide expert insulation for suspended timber floors, ensuring your home is both warm and well-ventilated. Proper installation prevents moisture build-up and preserves the structure of your floor while boosting comfort.

Our 3-Layer Insulation Approach:

  • Vapour Control Layer
    Stops rising damp and moisture from entering your living space.

  • High-Performance Floor Insulation
    Installed snugly between floor joists to reduce heat loss and cold spots.

  • Airtight Membrane
    Seals in warmth, blocks drafts, and allows natural ventilation to continue.

Frequently Asked Questions

Every client and project is unique. We take the time to listen to your needs and preferences, providing customized solutions that align with your vision and requirements.

Insulating your floor reduces heat loss, improves energy efficiency, and enhances comfort by eliminating cold drafts from below. Over time, it lowers heating bills and increases your home’s BER (Building Energy Rating).

At least 8% of a home’s heat can be lost through the floor, but SEAI estimates it could be up to 20%, especially in older homes without proper insulation.

It can contribute significantly, especially in older homes. While not always required for a B2 rating, floor insulation is a one-time upgrade that delivers long-term benefits in energy efficiency and comfort.

Yes. When installed correctly with a vapour control layer, floor insulation helps prevent moisture from rising into your home, reducing the risk of damp and mould growth.

Not with our system. We install an airtight membrane that improves thermal performance while maintaining natural airflow. Proper ventilation is preserved to prevent condensation.

Floor insulation is a long-term investment. Once installed properly, it can last for decades—often as long as the building itself—without needing replacement.
