BER Assessments in Crumlin
Crumlin and Dublin 12 is one of Dublin's most characterful residential areas, built primarily in the 1930s–50s as part of Dublin Corporation's massive social housing programme. The signature Crumlin house is a two-storey semi-detached or terraced home with distinctive red or brown brick frontage and rendered sides and rear. Drimnagh has a similar housing stock with slightly earlier 1930s houses. Walkinstown and Greenhills were developed slightly later in the 1950s–60s. These homes are solidly built but predate any energy efficiency regulations, solid walls of 9-inch block or brick, minimal or no attic insulation, and original single-glazed steel-framed or timber windows. Typical BER ratings for unimproved homes in this area range from E to G.

BER Tips for Crumlin Homeowners
Crumlin's 1940s and 1950s homes have solid walls, which means cavity fill isn't an option. External wall insulation is the most effective solution, it wraps the entire house and eliminates cold bridging, often improving the BER by three or more grades. Many homes on Crumlin Road, Sundrive Road and the surrounding streets still have original Crittall steel-framed windows that are extremely draughty. Replacing these with modern A-rated windows makes a dramatic difference to both comfort and BER rating. The SEAI grants for wall insulation and windows and doors together can cover a substantial portion of the cost for these older homes.
