Biobased insulation in Geertruidenberg
Isoleerbewust insulates homes in Geertruidenberg with natural, vapour-open materials: hempfibre, cellulose, woodfibre and strawboard. We tailor the construction to the age and detailing of your home, instead of forcing a standard package onto it.
What makes insulating in Geertruidenberg different
Climate, subsoil, build years and local schemes differ per place. These are the factors we take into account in Geertruidenberg.
Summer and winter temperature
Around Geertruidenberg the average daily maximum in July is roughly 22.8 °C and the average January temperature about 3.4 °C, with some 6 tropical days a year. Colder winters than in the west because of the inland position: more frost days and a longer heating season. That shifts the balance towards thicker insulation and good airtightness around dormers and joints.
Housing stock and build years
The stock in Geertruidenberg is dominated by mix vooroorlogs tot jaren 90: rijwoningen en twee-onder-een-kap. We match the build-up to that, instead of applying a standard package.
Subsoil and moisture
Geertruidenberg largely sits on sandy soil. Sandy soil drains well: crawl spaces are drier and foundation problems are rarer. The gains here are mostly in roof and cavity, and in limiting summer heat upstairs.
Grants and financing here
Nationally the ISDE insulation grant applies: the amount per m² doubles when you carry out two or more measures at once. On top of that almost every municipality has a sustainability loan, and the National Heat Fund provides financing, at 0% interest for lower incomes.
