Underfloor Insulation Australia Efficient Safe Affordable
Getting it Right from the Start
Underfloor insulation works best when the basics are done right from the start:
Your home is suitable for underfloor insulation.
You need a suspended floor, safe access and enough room to install the insulation properly.
You choose the right product for you and your home.
We recommend polyester underfloor insulation in roll format because it is non-itchy, non-toxic, moisture, mould and rodent resistant, does not hide termites and is easy and pleasant for DIYers to handle.
Your installation is done well.
The insulation needs to fit snugly between the joists and stay in contact with the underside of your floorboards.
The product must allow for you to be able to access and maintain infrastructure under your home without destructive removal.
It is a ‘no brainer’ that it must be easy to maintain services under your floor and be able to regularly inspect for termites for many years after the installation is complete.
We want a great outcome for your home with no guessing and definitely no regrets.

Planning to DIY? This section shows you how to install underfloor insulation properly, what tools you need, how to staple it, what mistakes to avoid, and how to work safely.
Some homes are great for DIY underfloor insulation, while others are not. If you have good access, enough clearance and are physically able, you may be able to install it yourself. If the space is low, awkward, full of services, or you simply do not want to spend a weekend (or two) under your home, an installer may be the better option. Both are fine. The important thing is choosing the right pathway for you.

What customers say
Don’t waste your money or time with the stuff from Bunnings. The ecoMaster poly floor made a huge difference to the temperature inside the house and was super easy to install.
My home’s subfloor is low enough that I couldn’t find any tradesperson to insulate it, so decided to DIY it. Needless to say, it’s a miserable process, but that’s got nothing to do with this polyester insulation. In fact, if the insulation wasn’t so good I would have given up. It’s positively pleasant to work with, tears only in one direction, just as advertised, and isn’t irritating whatsoever. The scraps make perfect pillows to lie on while working in the subfloor. Haven’t finished the whole house but under bare feet, I can already feel the difference in floor temperature in the insulated areas.
The difference ecoMaster’s underfloor insulation has made to our Macedon Ranges residence has been extraordinary. We remained snug in winter while reducing our fuel bills and cool in summer needing neither AC or fans when the outside temperature reached 37 degrees. A very good purchase from an efficient, polite and knowledgeable company.
