When developing technical content we aim to
- use reliable primary sources wherever practical — manufacturer technical literature, third-party certificates, Approved Documents, British Standards and government guidance
- distinguish manufacturer claims from general guidance
- explain important limitations
- state when advice depends on the particular property
- review changing government and regulatory information
- correct substantive inaccuracies
- disclose relevant commercial relationships
- avoid guaranteeing savings or performance without evidence
Who writes our content?
Content is produced by the InsulationMatch Technical Editorial Team, which maintains the guidance published across the website using manufacturer technical literature, certification, government guidance and other relevant primary sources. Where a genuine named specialist has contributed to or reviewed a guide, their identity and relevant credentials are provided on that guide.
How often is content reviewed?
Content is updated when there is a substantive reason to do so: a regulation changes, a scheme opens or closes, a product certificate is revised, or a reader reports an error. We do not change dates simply to create the appearance of freshness. Every guide shows the date it was last materially reviewed.
What our guidance is not
General principles explained on this site are not a substitute for a property-specific survey where construction, moisture, ventilation or regulatory considerations are involved. Where a question cannot responsibly be answered without seeing the property, we say so.
Corrections
If you believe something on this site is wrong, tell us. Substantive corrections are made and the review date on the page is updated.
