PIR Insulation Boards delivered to Paisley

PIR (polyisocyanurate) insulation boards are rigid foam boards with foil facings that give a lot of insulation for their thickness, used in floors, walls, pitched and flat roofs.

Trades and homeowners in Paisley can order PIR insulation boards for delivery by sending a list, a drawing or just the sizes of the job.

Planning the drop in Paisley

Boards are light but bulky; they travel in wrapped packs and should be stored flat and dry. Paisley is inside our standard mainland delivery area.

  • Tell us the best drop point, such as a driveway, front garden or the kerb, and whether a lorry can park close to it.
  • Mention any overhead cables, low branches or narrow gateways, because they decide whether a crane offload is possible.
  • If the site is up a shared drive or behind other houses, tell us the distance from the road.

PIR Insulation Boards: choosing well

Sealing joints

Tape the joints with foil tape so the foil layer works as a continuous vapour control layer where the design relies on it.

Fire considerations

PIR is a combustible product. Building regulations restrict combustible materials in some situations, such as external walls of taller buildings; check what applies.

In Scotland most building work needs a building warrant from the local authority, assessed against the Building Standards Technical Handbooks.
