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 New Mills
Is loft work in New Mills 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.
Can a landlord in New Mills book work for a tenanted house?
Yes. We can arrange access with the tenant directly and send you photos once the work is finished.
Do you take on jobs outside New Mills?
Yes. We also work in Glossop and Buxton and elsewhere in Derbyshire.
What do I need to do before you arrive in New Mills?
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.
