Quick answer
Solid wall insulation can be funded under ECO4 and Warm Homes funding for eligible homes. Higher grant amounts often apply because the cost is higher than other insulation types.
Insulation applied to the inside (IWI) or outside (EWI) of walls in homes without a cavity — typically pre-1920s construction.
Materials, scaffolding (for EWI) and finishing add cost. Grants may not always cover the full price.
