BSA Insurance Job
Dion Cardon-Smith had NPS External Insulated Wall Cladding System comprising of expanded polystyrene panels and specified render applied to his home using the Direct Fix Method. “After investing a lot of money into building our home, we were amazed when we started to see a bit of cracking here and there not long after it was completed. Significant cracking appeared all over the home and then water started leaking in. An independent builder told me the fibre cement sheeting used through the building was cracking and it would all need to be replaced. The team at NPS heard about my situation and came to have a look.
They recommended a Direct Fix Method of NPS External Insulated Wall Cladding over the top of the existing walls. I was skeptical to say the least, but the end result has absolutely blown me away. The cracking has gone, the render is perfect, the water has stopped leaking and the house looks amazing. The cost comparison to install NPS External Insulated Wall Cladding System was significantly less than replacing the fibre cement sheeting. I would never have even thought about using expanded polystyrene sheeting before this. Now, I’ll never use anything else.”
