Thermal Insulation in Craiova

About this service

Thermal insulation is one of the most effective investments for reducing heating and cooling costs in your home. Services in this category include facade insulation with expanded polystyrene or mineral wool, roof and attic insulation, basement and floor slab insulation, pipe and installation insulation, and interior insulation solutions using plasterboard and mineral wool. A thermal insulation specialist assesses the building's condition, proposes the optimal technical and economic solution, and carries out the work in compliance with current standards. Home thermal insulation reduces utility bills by 30-60%, increases thermal comfort, prevents condensation and mold, and increases property value. Modern insulation systems include graphite-enhanced EPS, basalt mineral wool, and polyurethane spray foam, each with specific advantages.

What to check before hiring a thermal insulation

Choose a minimum polystyrene thickness of 10 cm for facades and 15 cm for roofs
Request a detailed quote specifying brand and material type
Verify the company offers a written warranty for the insulation system
Insulation work must be done in dry conditions at temperatures above +5°C
Always insulate the entire thermal envelope for best results
Graphite-enhanced (grey) EPS is more efficient than white EPS at the same thickness
Ask for references from similar completed projects and visit a site if possible
Don't sacrifice material quality to reduce cost — poor insulation costs more in the long run

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does thermal insulation of a house cost in Craiova?

The cost depends on area and insulation type. A facade with 10 cm polystyrene averages 60-120 RON/sqm including materials and labor. A 150 sqm facade can total 9,000-18,000 RON.

What's more effective — polystyrene or mineral wool?

Expanded polystyrene (EPS) is cheaper and easier to install. Mineral (basalt) wool offers better acoustic insulation and is fire-resistant. The choice depends on budget and building requirements.

How much can energy bills drop after insulating my home?

Studies show a well-insulated home can reduce heating energy consumption by 30-60%. The investment payback period is typically 5-10 years.

What polystyrene thickness is recommended?

Current standards recommend a minimum of 10 cm for facades and 15-20 cm for roofs. The greater the thickness, the better the insulation, but cost increases proportionally.

What is graphite-enhanced polystyrene and why is it better?

Graphite-enhanced EPS (grey EPS) has a thermal conductivity coefficient 20-30% lower than standard white EPS. This means better insulation at the same thickness.

Can I insulate only part of my home?

Yes, but specialists recommend insulating the entire thermal envelope for optimal results. Partial insulation can create thermal bridges and condensation in uninsulated areas.
