What insulation we install in the Rotorua Lakes District
Ceiling Insulation
The quickest way to lift comfort and reduce heat loss. We top‑up or replace tired product, clear gaps around downlights (as appropriate), and ensure consistent coverage to the required R‑values for the zone.
Underfloor Insulation
Stops draughts and heat loss through suspended timber floors. We fix securely between joists and seal obvious air paths to improve warmth and comfort.
Ground Moisture Barriers (Also known as Ground Vapour Barriers)
A heavy-duty polythene layer over the soil in your subfloor to reduce moisture rising into the home. Lower moisture means less mould and a healthier indoor environment.
Targeted Wall Insulation (where suitable)
In select retrofit scenarios, we can address accessible wall sections. We’ll advise after your assessment.

FAQs
Can I get free insulation in Rotorua?
Many owner-occupiers qualify for high-level subsidies through Warmer Kiwi Homes, and there may be local top-ups available. In some cases, the combined funding can bring your contribution to zero. We’ll confirm your eligibility at the assessment.
How long does installation take?
Most homes are completed in one day. Larger or more complex properties may take longer — we’ll let you know when we book your installation date.
Will you remove old insulation?
Yes — if your existing insulation is damaged, under‑spec or poorly installed, we’ll price removal and safe disposal.
What R‑value do I need?
That depends on your home, location and the relevant standard. We’ll recommend R‑values that meet or exceed requirements and fit your budget.
