Your home is your refuge.
It’s where you come, shut out the world and relax.
But there’s one thing you need to consider in relation to comfort
and I don’t mean pillows and sofas - it’s structure.
What is my house made of?
We’ve all had the noisy neighbour.
Floors, walls and even your stairs contribute to transferring noise around your home.
Concrete slabs like these and internal walls like these
have really high levels of sound insulation.
In fact, concrete has the highest sound dampening properties
of any construction material.
Concrete walls greatly reduce sound transfer within your home.
A concrete floor slab between levels offers superior sound resistance,
it almost eliminates sound transfer all together.
Concrete can also be used to make the stairs, providing further tranquility and comfort.
Did you know concrete can store and release heat due to its thermal mass.
This means that it can moderate internal temperatures within your home.
It stores heat during the day and releases it at night.
These walls are like a giant thermal storage heater
contributing to a much more comfortable living environment.
When it comes to heating, underfloor systems installed in concrete floors
disperse the heat evenly and quickly around the whole room.
With no bulky radiators or hot spots near the heat source,
underfloor heating warms quickly and conserves the heat longer.
Look, you can change the colour of the curtains and the walls
and even if it’s a messy job, the kitchen and the tiles can go eventually too
but the structure of your home is permanent.
So to add to the comfort of your home ask the question, is this house concrete built?
