Warmer homes, lower energy bills and SEAI-supported upgrades for homeowners and landlords across Galway.
Galway Insulation
A complete insulation and energy upgrade service for Galway
County Galway stretches from Galway City and its suburbs to market towns, lakeside villages and coastal communities in Connemara. Homes range from older stone houses and farm cottages to bungalows, townhouses and newer estates, so insulation levels and heating systems can vary a lot from property to property.
Premier Insulations provides a full range of insulation, heating and energy upgrade services for homes and small commercial buildings throughout County Galway. Insulation remains at the core of what we do, with heating, solar and other upgrades planned around it so you get the best comfort and value from your investment.

What customers say
“After the attic and cavity wall insulation, our home in Galway is much easier to heat. The house holds its temperature better and the boiler is not working as hard.”

Heat pumps and solar PV in County Galway
For suitable, well-insulated homes in Galway, we can also help with low-carbon heating and renewable electricity options:
- Air to water heat pumps – modern heat pump systems for homes with good insulation and emitters.
- Solar PV installation – roof-mounted solar panels to generate electricity on site.
These technologies work best when insulation, airtightness and heating controls are already in good shape, so we always look at the whole home first.
Energy upgrades, BER and SEAI grants
Larger upgrade projects often involve several measures together. Our energy upgrade services help you plan and deliver this in a structured way:
- Energy upgrades & retrofit overview
- Home Energy Assessment & BER – assessing your home, identifying heat loss and providing an up-to-date BER.
- Eligibility & process for upgrades – understanding if your home and planned works meet current criteria.
For grants and support schemes, we always follow SEAI’s current rules for homes in the Republic of Ireland:
- Grants overview
- SEAI grants – types & amounts
- Insulation grants
- Heat pump grants
- Solar PV grants
- Heating controls grants
- Warmer Homes Scheme – fully funded energy upgrades for certain eligible homeowners. SEAI runs this scheme and appoints contractors directly; Premier Insulations can advise you and carry out additional works where required.

Windows and doors as part of your Galway upgrade
Insulation and airtightness are usually the first and most cost-effective steps, but windows and external doors also play an important role in comfort and heat loss. As part of a broader upgrade, we can review the condition of your windows and doors and advise how they fit into your insulation and heating plan.
- Windows & doors – how windows and doors sit alongside insulation, heating controls and renewables.

Premier Insulations is an SEAI-registered contractor for homes in the Republic of Ireland. SEAI grants are only available for eligible properties in the Republic of Ireland.
Do you only do insulation, or can you help with heating and solar as well?
Insulation is our core service, but we also provide heating and boiler services, heating controls, air to water heat pumps for suitable homes, and solar PV installation. On Galway projects, we usually start by improving insulation and airtightness, then make sure the heating and renewables are sized and set up correctly around that.
Can you work on rental properties and small commercial buildings?
Yes. We regularly upgrade insulation and heating in rental homes, small apartment blocks and commercial properties such as offices, shops and small industrial units in County Galway. For commercial projects, we review usage patterns, fabric and services to recommend the most appropriate measures.

The easiest way to get started is to book a free survey. We will visit your Galway property, assess the existing insulation and heating, discuss your goals and budget, and outline a recommended plan. Where relevant, we will also explain which SEAI grants may apply and how the application process works.
