Meet the Manawatū team

Meet Stephen and Kathleen Jestin, the dynamic duo behind the Insulmax® Manawatū franchise.

Based in Feilding, they've been transforming homes since 2006, and joined the Insulmax® family in 2015. Stephen, a seasoned builder, has always been passionate about energy efficiency. He discovered his interest in insulation when he saw the impact it had on people's lives which cemented his commitment to the field. What sets the Jestins apart is their genuine belief in what they do. They've seen first-hand the remarkable difference Insulmax® can make in a home – from customers no longer needing to use their heat pumps due to the increased warmth, to impressive savings on power bills. They look forward to helping you make your home more comfortable and energy-efficient with Insulmax®.

We insulate the walls of all types of New Zealand homes

Weatherboard

The quintessential Kiwi cladding
Weatherboard

Weatherboard homes are classically kiwi - charming, understated and full of character. However, most weatherboard homes built before 1978 are missing something integral to their construction - wall insulation. Together, let's transform your home into a more energy-efficient warmer, drier, quieter and more comfortable place to live - all year round!

Brick & Block

The sturdy cladding that a wolf couldn’t blow through - but a winter chill can
Brick & Block

Solid and striking, "you can’t go wrong" investing in an older brick home. But for all its dependability, there’s something fundamental missing in your older brick home… wall insulation. Insulmax® retrofit wall insulation can transform your brick home into a haven of comfort and quiet.

Roughcast

Roughcast, stucco, rendered brick, rendered plaster, rendered concrete…
Roughcast

Whatever you call an older "roughcast" home it is probably missing a key element - wall insulation. Whilst some homeowners undertake the daunting task of removing wall linings to add segment insulation, this is an expensive and obtrusive option and often strips older homes of their character. We have the experience and skills to finish your roughcast cladding so that you won’t even know we’ve been - except for a noticeably warmer, drier home!

Interior Wall

Insulation for every space: No room left unreached
Interior Wall

We can easily insulate the walls of your home through the interior plasterboard linings. This is particularly useful if you are planning on redecorating, as we can insulate before you prep walls for paint or wallpaper.

Ceiling Insulation

Ceiling insulation made easy for tight spaces
Ceiling Insulation

Heat loss through the ceiling can account for a significant portion of a home's energy waste, especially in uninsulated skillion ceilings. With limited space between the roof and ceiling, traditional insulation methods are often impractical and costly. Insulmax®'s blown insulation is the ideal solution, efficiently insulating your ceiling without the need for expensive renovations, bringing your home up to modern standards.

“We are very happy with the work Stephen and his team did. We own a large 1920s villa that was hard to heat and cold. Afterwards we noticed an immediate difference in the feel of our home. It is warmer and quieter.”
