Why multifoil (SuperQuilt) for Island projects?
- Multifoil delivers high thermal performance with a relaxed thickness ~40 mm (approx.), ideal where rafters are shallow or headroom matters.
- Roofs, walls, floors—one system, multiple details.
- Clean, quick, and easy to handle, especially useful for ferry-timed days and tight turnarounds.
- When correctly installed and taped, multifoil systems provide vapour control within the build-up.
- 19-layer certified product with formal approvals suitable for Building Control submissions.

FAQs
Do you cover my area?
Yes—all across the Island: Newport, Ryde, Cowes/East Cowes, Sandown, Shanklin, Ventnor, Yarmouth, Freshwater, Bembridge, Brading, and rural locations.
Can multifoil help me meet Part L targets?
Used in the right build-up and installed correctly, yes—multifoil can help you reach target U-values. We'll share detail-specific guidance with your quote.
Is it suitable for older or coastal homes?
Yes, but detailing matters. We manage taping, laps, junctions, and ventilation to control moisture and air movement in coastal conditions.
Do you provide certificates and data sheets?
Absolutely—formal certification and product data are included for Building Control and warranty files.
Can I combine multifoil with PIR/mineral wool?
Yes. We often design hybrid build-ups to hit performance with the slimmest practical section.
How quickly can you start?
Surveys are typically available within a week, and small installs can often be scheduled soon after, subject to ferry slots and material allocation.
