What our customers actually say

"It's like having a new house, without moving!"

Michael Gamlen
Google Review

"I had underfloor insulation put in by Warmdwell in my Edwardian semi and I was very impressed with the process and the results. They were prompt, professional and efficient, and the floor is appreciably warmer when barefoot. Recommended!"

Matt Donmall
Google Review

"The insulation has made such a difference. The house is now very warm and cosy. Professional, friendly and courteous — the disruption was minimal and I could barely tell you'd been there (apart from having a warm house afterwards!)"

Mark Smith

"Cannot praise Laurence and his Warmdwell team highly enough. Professional, hard working and very courteous throughout, cleaning up meticulously once the job was complete. The underfloor insulation has made a huge difference."

Why floors feel cold

A hidden draught beneath your floor is quietly stealing the warmth

Older homes typically have a suspended timber ground floor: floorboards on joists, with an open void underneath. Air bricks let outside air rush through that void all year round — so heat escapes, and rooms never feel truly warm.
Cold feet, cold sofas
Rooms never quite feel warm, even with the heating on high.
Draughts rising up
Gaps around floorboards let outside air seep directly into the room.
Heat pulled down
Warmth paid for is quietly drawn out into the open void below.
Insulating between the joists — properly, with the void still ventilated — stops that air stealing warmth, and brings the room back into use.

Our services

A specialist approach,
tailored to each home

Every property is different: even seemingly identical neighbouring properties can have very different sub-floor spaces in both design and conditions. We start by understanding the home in detail — not just its physical construction, but also how the space is used and future plans, to agree the ideal approach — and then calmly get on with the work with as little intrusion into daily life as possible.

High-Performance 

Premium insulation fitted between joists to stop heat escaping and keep your living spaces warm all day.

Installed From Below

We access the void from a cellar or a small, discreet opening, so floorboards and rooms above stay untouched.

Minimal Disruption 

Protected rooms, careful access and boards replaced precisely — ideal for period homes with original features.

Draught Proofing

Gaps and cold spots around floors and skirtings are sealed so the warmth you generate stays where it belongs.

Minimal disruption

"It's like you've never been here."

That's the phrase we hear most often — and it's what we design every job around. We work quietly, protect everything, and leave the home exactly as we found it, only warmer.
Most customers tell us it's the least stressful work they've ever had done in their house. That's not by accident; it's how we've built the practice.

"Thank you for your work — it was the least stressful work I have ever had done on the house!"

— Alistair MacNair, Cambridge, 2025

"I felt safe and relaxed with them working in my home, as safe and comfortable as if it were my brothers."

How it works

A calm, considered process from start to finish

01

Discussion & Technical On-Site Survey

We start with a proper conversation — objectives, cold spots, quirks of the property — then a technical on-site survey to establish the precise best solution for your specific home.
02

Preparation of Our Work Area

Many hands make light work — we can clear the space for you. Dust sheets down, rooms screened off, extraction running and discreet access created only where needed.
03

Rigorous Underfloor Installation

Insulation fitted tightly between joists, every gap is sealed, airbricks are kept clear, and any small repairs are handled carefully as the installation progresses.
04

Clean Up & Post-Installation Report

We leave everything just as we found it. Payment is only due once you are happy, with a full photographic report for your records or for EPC assessors and building control.
