Installing insulation in existing homes is currently one of the most common property improvements undertaken. With many Wellington insulation installers offering both their services and the products themselves, who can you actually trust to do the job properly and use the right type of insulation?
Standards Required Of Insulation Professionals
While you can install your own insulation in your ceiling, underfloor and walls, using a professional insulation installer makes the process quicker and gives you peace of mind that the job has been done correctly.
All insulation installations must meet the required standard; NZS 4246:2006 (NZS 4246:2006 Installing Insulation in Residential Buildings)Installing Insulation in Residential Buildings. All insulation professionals located within the Wellington region will need to have a solid understanding and fully comply with this standard when doing either an insulation retro fit or for a new build.
Members of the Insulation Association of New Zealand (IAONZ) who have successfully completed the training on installing both ceiling and underfloor insulation will be listed on their online directory. IOANZ exists to help establish performance benchmarks for the supply and installation of insulation products within residential properties throughout New Zealand. Choosing an installer who is a member of this association provides you with the knowledge that you will be receiving a great product and service for your home.
Which Type Of Insulation Is Right For Your Home?
With the wide variety of insulation available on the market, choosing the best one for your home does require research. The types of insulation available include:
Having a professionally insulated home will help keep your family warmer and drier and will also make it quicker and more effectively heated. Lower electricity bills are also an added bonus.

Read moreOur ceiling insulation is somewhat sub par. At a guess the previous owners diy’d it and gave up 70% of the way through. There are also noticeable signs of rodents in the roof, with a bit of a smell that is noticeable in the house when the HRV is running. We’re looking to get the insulation sorted out. It’s probably ~80-100 square meters of ceiling space. Relatively accessible, with the corners being a tight squeeze but doable.
