Choosing the right wall build-up is one of the most important decisions in any home extension or new build project. Walls do far more than hold up the roof; they influence how warm, quiet, and durable your home will be, while also shaping its overall character and cost. From the finishes you see and touch, to the hidden layers of structure and insulation, each decision plays a role in performance and appearance. In this blog, we’ll explore the different wall types available for UK domestic projects, how they compare, and what to consider when selecting the best option for your design.
