Home energy upgrades in Swansea
Swansea’s homes climb steep hills above the bay, and the weather off the sea shapes how they are built and maintained.
Homes you will find in Swansea
Terraces of stone and brick run up the hillsides in areas like Mount Pleasant and Uplands. There are also interwar and post-war estates, and coastal bungalows and flats around Mumbles and Sketty.
Strong wind and driving rain are the big issue here, so damp control matters when choosing insulation.

Upgrades that often come up here
- Loft insulation: A low-risk improvement for pitched roofs.
- Draught-proofing: Good for exposed hillside homes, with ventilation retained.
- Solar PV (solar panels): South-facing slopes with little shade may suit solar PV.

Worth knowing locally
Wall insulation on exposed coastal sites should only go ahead after a proper survey of rain exposure. Wales has its own building regulations.
