CorkSol Spray Insulation Case Study

Transforming a Cold, Damp Room into a Warmer, Healthier Living Space

At 2nd City Spray Solutions, we recently completed a full CorkSol spray insulation installation for a homeowner struggling with cold walls, recurring damp patches and persistent black mould. This property is typical of many homes across Birmingham and the West Midlands - solid walls, older construction and difficult-to-heat rooms that lose warmth quickly.

Our team applied CorkSol's natural, breathable thermal coating to create a warmer, healthier living environment while preparing the room for a perfect plastered finish.

Tackling Common Homeowner Problems

This property faced three issues we see time and time again:

• Black mould forming behind furniture and in corners
• Cold, damp walls causing condensation
• Heat escaping the room too quickly, leading to high energy bills

CorkSol directly targets all of these problems. As a natural cork-based coating, it allows the walls to breathe while improving surface temperature - eliminating the cold spots where mould thrives.

Why We Chose CorkSol Spray Insulation

CorkSol spray insulation is one of the most effective and eco-friendly internal solutions available. It offers:

• Breathability, preventing trapped moisture
• Thermal performance, keeping heat inside the home
• A natural barrier against black mould and damp
• Flexibility, reducing the risk of cracking
• Compatibility with plastering, providing a perfect key for a smooth finish

Within hours of application, the room already felt noticeably warmer - a clear sign of the insulation working exactly as intended.

The Results

We left the room:

• Fully insulated
• Completely sealed
• Ready for plastering
• Instantly warmer and more comfortable

Once plastered, this room will benefit from long-term energy savings, reduced condensation and a healthier indoor environment.

CorkSol spray insulation is particularly effective for:

• Solid brick or stone walls
• Victorian and pre-war properties
• Extensions and loft rooms
• Rooms that suffer from cold spots, damp or mould
