That’s really interesting, thanks. I mean it’s possible that delay is due to manufacturing ramp- up rather than lack of installers, but I think you are probably right.
Shame. I’m in a terrace - I don’t even have cavity walls, let alone insulation.
You can still add internal or external wall insulation. Here's an example of external wall insulation on a terrace. If it's not suitable for external insulation, or you don't want to change the exterior look, internal wall insulation is only a little more expensive. Most cost-effective when the plastering needs redoing anyway, of course. It will take a few inches off your interior space but at least with terraces you only need to do one dimension not both (because your neighbours are insulating you on either side, or at least one side).
Yeh, looked into this. The exterior isn’t really suitable and redoing the interior plastering means ripping out and replacing all the fairly new double glazed sash windows. Not going to happen:(
Thank you for taking the time to share your knowledge, though.
