We recently renovated the roof of my own house, where the gable-end wall was constructed from single-skin Tijolo. This meant that the ceiling slab and loft space became extremely hot during the summer months and very cold during the winter.
We subsequently clad the exterior of the gable end with cork façade panels and added insulation to the interior of the loft space. The difference has been remarkable, both in terms of temperature regulation and overall comfort.
I also really like the appearance of the cork façade panels, which give the building a natural and attractive finish while providing excellent thermal performance.
The cork façade panels were supplied by Amorim in Porto.
