Building regulations in England
Insulating a loft is treated as renovating a thermal element when more than half of the ceiling area is insulated. Approved Document L sets a target U-value of 0.16 W/m²K, which is around 250 to 300 mm of mineral wool. Loft insulation on its own usually does not need a building notice, but it still has to meet that standard. Rafter insulation that forms part of a loft conversion is notifiable building work.

Questions about loft insulation in Thatcham
Will I get a written quote for work in Thatcham?
Yes. Every quote is in writing with the work, the price and what is included, so you can compare it properly.
Do you take on jobs outside Thatcham?
Yes. We also work in Newbury and Reading and elsewhere in Berkshire.
Is loft work in Thatcham different from anywhere else?
The method is the same, but older terraces, cottages and newer estates each have their own quirks: lath ceilings, low pitches or trussed roofs. We plan for the loft we find.
What do I need to do before you arrive in Thatcham?
Clear a path to the hatch and, if you can, move stored items away from the area we will be working in. Tell us about anything heavy or fragile.
