Q-Bot is a UK underfloor insulation system that can be installed robotically beneath suspended timber floors so homeowners cut heat loss and draughts without fully lifting boards, with published performance figures from third-party testing.
Q-Bot markets a spray-foam style underfloor insulation process aimed at older UK homes with suspended timber floors, where Q-Bot states roughly eight million properties still lose heat through the floor zone (Q-Bot, 2025).
The firm cites independent testing that measured up to about eighty percent improvement in thermal performance for the treated floor zone and about thirty-one percent improvement in airtightness in the study scenario, with the usual caveat that every house differs (Q-Bot, 2025).
Installers can deploy the system robotically or by hand depending on access and subfloor conditions, which matters when crawl spaces are tight or when homeowners want minimal disruption to floor finishes (Q-Bot, 2025).
Retrofit coordinators should still pair Q-Bot with ventilation reviews, moisture risk checks, and any grant rules that apply in your region, because underfloor work interacts with whole-building moisture balance.

- Robot option reduces crawl-space labor for eligible sites
Cons
- Primarily UK market positioning in public materials reviewed
- Not a BIM authoring tool; it is a field retrofit system
- Pricing is quote-based through accredited routes

Frequently asked questions
Is Q-Bot only for the United Kingdom?
Public web copy is written for UK homeowners and references UK housing stock figures. Ask Q-Bot whether accredited installers operate in your country before you specify it on non-UK projects.
Does Q-Bot replace BIM workflows?
No. Q-Bot is a retrofit installation system. You might still use BIM for whole-building energy models, but the product itself is not model-authoring software.
Can Q-Bot be installed without robots?
Q-Bot states that robotic or hand installation paths exist depending on property conditions. Site survey outcomes determine the path.
Will underfloor insulation cause damp?
Q-Bot publishes FAQ material arguing that their process stops draughts while managing ventilation needs. You should still run project-specific moisture risk review against BS guidance and insurer rules.
How much energy can I save?
Q-Bot cites independent testing summaries with large percentage improvements for the floor zone. Whole-house savings depend on boiler efficiency, wall insulation, occupant behavior, and weather. Treat marketing percentages as orientation, not a guarantee.
Q-Bot vs loft insulation first: which comes first?
Energy assessors often prioritize the cheapest loft depth first, then tackle floors where suspended voids leak heat. Q-Bot fits the floor path when loft work is already done or inadequate floor loss dominates bills.
