Insulating your facade from the outside allows you to make significant savings in terms of energy consumption without impacting the interior of the house. This type of insulation is particularly efficient and can take several forms to fit perfectly with the style of the home for a variable budget. Let's find out how to find the cheapest facade insulation.
What budget should you plan to insulate your facade according to the materials?
The cladding
The cladding consists of the installation of an insulator which dresses the facade. Modern and elegant, it insulates the house well thanks to its great performance. There are several types of cladding:
- Metal cladding :despite its aesthetics long considered cold and industrial, metal cladding is now fashionable. Very inexpensive, with an average of 5 to 30 euros per square meter, it provides high quality insulation.
- PVC cladding :this solution is the most interesting in economic terms. It offers good insulation and a pleasant aesthetic thanks to the improvement of its design. Its price varies between 10 and 25 euros per square meter.
- Wood cladding :very aesthetic, wood cladding insulates your facade while giving it a note that is both contemporary and rustic. This elegant solution is appreciated for its natural and ecological characteristics, but it needs regular maintenance. Count 15 to 60 euros per square meter.
- Composite cladding :composite cladding is an interesting alternative to wood, for those who do not wish to bother with its maintenance. It retains its natural warmth thanks to its wood particles as well as the same technical performance. Allow 40 to 90 euros per square meter.
The coating
Rendering is another way of insulating a facade without covering it with cladding. It offers a different aesthetic for a price varying between 10 and 50 euros per square meter.
Insulators
- Mineral wool: glass wool and rock wool are the most common solutions in France. Easy to install, they insulate the facade well for a fair price varying between 3 and 20 euros per square meter.
- Polyurethane: very good thermal insulator, polyurethane comes in the form of spray foam or panels. Increasingly popular, it has the advantage of correcting certain defects in the facade. Count an average of 20 euros per square meter.
