External Wall Insulation in
Keynsham
Keynsham sits halfway between Bristol and Bath, and the housing reflects both: a small Georgian and Victorian core near the High Street, then substantial inter-war and post-war estates spreading out from it. We work here regularly from Hanham, twenty minutes down the A4175.

Keynsham's inter-war semis are solid 9-inch brick with no cavity. EWI with 90mm graphite EPS brings the U-value below 0.30 W/m²K and the silicone top coat keeps maintenance low. Twenty minutes from our Hanham yard, so we can usually visit same-day for quotes.
If your Bristol home was built before 1990, chances are it has no cavity wall insulation and minimal loft insulation. The result: heat loss through the walls (up to 35% of your total heat loss), cold spots around window reveals, condensation on inside walls, and high energy bills. External Wall Insulation fixes all of this in one go. We fix 80-150mm of high-performance insulation board to the outside of your property, then apply a reinforced base coat and a silicone or monocouche render finish. The result: a 25-35% reduction in heating bills, elimination of condensation, and a fresh modern exterior. EWI typically pays for itself in 8-12 years through energy savings. We install Weber, K Rend and Johnstone's EWI systems.
Keynsham is a market town in Bath and North East Somerset, roughly equidistant between Bristol and Bath, and the housing stock spans both traditions. Around the High Street and Temple Street there is a modest Georgian and Victorian core, some of it stone-built and some in conservation area. Beyond that the town is dominated by inter-war semi-detached housing and post-war estates on the Chandag, Park Estate and Queens Road sides, with a growing amount of modern development on the old Cadbury's factory site and the edges of the town. That means the work splits cleanly: breathable, sympathetic systems on the older core, and standard silicone or monocouche on the far larger inter-war and post-war stock, much of which still carries original pebbledash or sand-and-cement that is now at end of life.

What Bristol & Bath customers say
Verified reviews from recent work.
We got in touch on Saturday as we urgently needed plastering finished in our bathroom. We had a very quick response and Kyran was around at 8am on Sunday to get it done. He finished in just a few hours and the standard seems very good.
Just had our living room ceiling plastered by K D Plastering. Very pleasant chap who done an excellent job, very pleased and won't hesitate to use the company again.
