Partially insulating a building is technically possible, and for projects that need to be phased over time a staged approach can be made to work — but it comes with genuine risks that are worth understanding before committing to it.…
Airtightness, breathability, and vapour control are three concepts that get conflated and confused in equal measure, and understanding how they interact is fundamental to designing a building fabric that performs well and doesn’t accumulate moisture damage over time. Airtightness means…
The question of why we insulate is rarely one that reaches BTE directly — most people have already decided they want to by the time they make contact — but the full picture is worth laying out clearly because the…
For solid-walled properties, the choice between external and internal wall insulation is one of the most common questions in retrofit — and the honest answer is that both have genuine merits and neither is universally better. External wall insulation keeps…
Plasterboard has something of an image problem in natural building circles, and it’s largely undeserved. Gypsum — the core material in plasterboard — is a naturally occurring mineral that requires very little processing: it’s extracted from the ground, dried at…
