What is blown loft insulation?
The machine stays outside or on the landing and the hose runs up to the loft. Depth markers fixed to the joists or trusses show the installed depth, and the fibre settles into corners that rolls would bridge. More about blown loft insulation.

Honest about grants
If you might qualify for funding, we tell you before we quote.
Clear contact details
Your quote says who to call with questions before, during and after the work.

Questions about blown loft insulation in Antrim
Do you take on jobs outside Antrim?
Yes. We also work in Ballymena and Newtownabbey and elsewhere in County Antrim.
Can a landlord in Antrim book work for a tenanted house?
Yes. We can arrange access with the tenant directly and send you photos once the work is finished.
Will I get a written quote for work in Antrim?
Yes. Every quote is in writing with the work, the price and what is included, so you can compare it properly.
Does blown insulation settle?
Mineral wool loose fill settles a little, which is allowed for in the depth we install. The depth markers let you check it later.
Is blown insulation better than rolls?
It performs about the same for the same depth. It is the faster and neater option in lofts that are awkward to work in, and rolls are better where you want boarding later.
