BENEFITS OF INSULATING YOUR HOME
Insulating your home will help save money on power bills as it will cost less to heat and cool. A well-insulated home will also have less mould and mildrew and help discourage allergy-aggravating dust mites.
Cooling your home in summer
In summer, heat moves from your ceiling cavity and outdoors, into your home. Insulation slows this transfer of heat, keeping your home cooler and more comfortable.
Keeping you warmer in winter
Insulation will slow the rate of heat loss through your ceiling, floors and walls, keeping your home warmer and saving you money on heating costs.
Industry figures state that without insulation, 30-35% of heat is lost through the ceiling, 12-14% through floors and 18-25% through your walls.
Making things quieter
Insulation provides a buffer to prevent noise from outside, coming in.
Where do I start?
We have different options for ceiling, wall and underfloor solutions. Here’s why each step is important:
Step One – Ceiling
Start with the Ceiling
Your ceiling is where the greatest amount of heat loss occurs, so it makes sense to look at insulating this first.
Like a blanket, ceiling insulation traps heat – keeping your home dry and warm in winter and cool in summer.
Quality ceiling insulation is also a great way to combat mould and condensation issues.
We have a range of options, in segments or rolls, to suit climates throughout the country.
Step Two – Underfloor
Underfloor solutions
Don’t let that heat escape – your underfloor area is the next part of your home to insulate once the ceiling is sorted.
If you have a timber floor in your home, chances are there is space underneath your floor that will allow us to fix insulation to the underside of the timber.
Insulating your underfloor will prevent heat loss and help eliminate draughts between floorboards, making your floor warmer to walk on in winter.
We’re specialists in retrofitting and new build insulation installations, talk to us about an on-site insulation assessment to find the right solution for your home.
Step Three – Walls
Warmth for your Walls & less noise
Install wall insulation and you’ll love the difference it makes to your power bill.
Like ceiling and underfloor insulation, wall insulation is a great way to reduce heat loss or gain.
If your late-night movies are keeping the kids awake, or a neighbour has taken up the drums, acoustic wall insulation also provides an effective buffer against noise.
Whether you’re building new, renovating, or retrofitting an older home, your insulation installation requirements will differ. We can provide expert advice and solutions to suit all homes.
OUR INSULATION SERVICES INCLUDE:

RETROFIT INSULATION
Retrofitting your home with insulation is basically re-insulating it. You may need retrofit insulation if you notice your power bills have been increasing, the temperatures in each room of your home aren’t uniform, and your home is drafty.
In most houses, insulation can be added to roof spaces and under timber framed floors. It’s more difficult to retrofit insulation to walls. Retrofitting wall insulation also requires a building consent unless the local council has made an exemption for this work.
We have local experienced G-Force Insulation Installer teams in Auckland, Waikato, Bay of Plenty and Christchurch who can advise on the best and most cost effective materials to use for your Retrofitting Insulation project.
NEW BUILD INSULATION
When the time comes to consider options for new home insulation, making the most of your investment and keeping your build on track are the two most important things to consider.
Now is the time to ensure you have installation in your Ceiling, Undefloor and Walls,.
We have local experienced G-Force Insulation Installer teams in Auckland, Waikato, Bay of Plenty and Christchurch who can advise on the best and most cost effective materials to use for your new Build Insulation project.

INSULATION REMOVAL
Before installing new ceiling insulation in your home or removing old ceiling panels for renovations, you should consider removing any old existing loose-fill insulation.
Over time, insulfluf or loose fill insulation can break down or become contaminated with things like vermin faeces or urine and other external factors.
When it comes to Insulfluf or other loose fill materials with formaldehyde, we cleanly suck out the old insulation into a sealed trailer to help ensure a dust-free environment with this additional service.
We have local experienced G-Force Insulation Installer teams in Auckland, Waikato and Bay of Plenty (sorry insulation removal is currently not available in Christchurch) who can advise on the best and most cost effective materials to use for your Insulation Removal project.
GARAGE DOOR INSULATION
The garage is an often-overlooked area for the installation of insulation.
Attached garages often have no insulation installed, causing them to be stifling hot during summer and freezing cold in winter.
A lot of modern homes no longer use the garage for the car but instead as an extension of the house.
As garage doors are normally just a thin sheet of metal with no insulation properties, insulating the garage door and ceiling will help maintain a suitable temperature and truly turn the garage into an extension of the livable house.

What insulation products does G-Force use?
Earthwool® glasswool is our first choice for insulation products, but we do also install polyester insulation when required.
Earthwool® glasswool insulation is made using recycled glass and offers the most environmentally friendly, energy-efficient products on the market. It’s also great value for money.
We only install insulation products that comply with all NZ insulation manufacturing and building standards.
All of the products that we install are backed by a 50-year manufacturers guarantee. This means that if the insulation is installed correctly and is maintained in dry conditions, then it will hold its thermal properties for 50 years.

How long will it take to install the insulation?
It takes approximately half a day to install ceiling insulation and half a day to install underfloor insulation.
After the work is complete, we will provide you with a Compliance Certificate that states that the work has been carried out in accordance with the building standard for insulation.
What is an insulation assessment?
They are looking to see what the existing insulation levels are of the property and what type of insulation is already there (if any).
After we have completed our assessment and understand your needs, we will discuss what your options are for insulating the property and provide you with a quote.
