About ICF Blocks
- Fast - Average extensions the walls are up in 2 days!
- Cost effective - The combination of improved U value and air leakage reduces fuel bill by up to 6 times
- Uses inert materials that are 100% recyclable, some of which have already been recycled
- Zero mould growth, therefore perfect for anyone suffering from respiratory problems
- Typical U value of 0.24 v 0.27 for a traditional masonry cavity wall
- Typical air leakage of 2m3/m2/hour v 10m3/m2/hour
- Greatly improved thermal efficiency reduces boiler sizes and heating pipework, making the cost of these works cheaper
- Excellent for use in party walls due to extremely low sound transmission
- Finished product is extremely strong and very secure (can resist windspeed of up to 250mph and is used by the US military)
- As a result, can reduce the cost of buildings insurance
- In North America homes constructed using this system have up to 10% greater resale value
- Can be erected in all weathers (other than extremely high winds) and at any temperature
- Does not require us to provide temporary protection (I typically budget £480 for this)
- Far cleaner to construct (no need for mixers for mortar)
- Far less waste (ability to use off-cuts)
