Is Your Home Making Your Family Sick?

The indoor air you breathe is likely 2-5 times more polluted than the air outside. 

It’s also hurting the value of your home!

Health Concerns

Common Indoor Pollutants Affecting Your Family

Every day, invisible threats lurk in your home: toxic mould spores, formaldehyde from old damp insulation, carbon monoxide, dust mites, and chemical off-gassing from paints and insulation.

 

These pollutants cause eye and throat irritation, memory loss, respiratory distress, and even serious long-term health conditions.

Mould

Causing memory loss, rashes, and chronic fatigue.

Formaldehyde

Leading to burning sensations and vomiting.

Carbon Monoxide

Creating balance issues and disorientation.

Chemical Off-Gassing

From damp insulation causing respiratory distress.

What Indoor Air Pollution Does to Children

Children breathe more air relative to their body weight than adults. Their respiratory rate is faster. Their immune systems are still developing

🔴 Respiratory Development – Increases lifelong asthma risk by 300-400%

🔴 Cognitive Effects – Children in mouldy homes score 4-7 points lower on tests

🔴 Immune Programming – Early exposure creates lifelong sensitivities

🔴 Growth Delays – Chronic inflammation diverts resources from development

🔴 Behavioral Issues – Neurological effects cause irritability and attention problems

Wasting Money

Energy Bills Through the Roof?

With poor or uninsulated properties you can expect up to 55% heat loss directly through the roof.

With premium loft insulation you can reduce energy use by up to 45%, saving you money and increasing your property’s value.

How Your Home Value is Affected

Your home could be worth 4.2% less than you think—not because of its age or location, but because of hidden damp or poor air quality dragging down its EPC rating.

Properties with EPC ratings A or B command higher valuations.
