What is blown loft insulation?
The machine stays outside or on the landing and the hose runs up to the loft. We hold a board or tray at the eaves so the loose fill cannot block the ventilation path. More about blown loft insulation.

Every insulation job includes a tank jacket and pipe lagging, so nothing freezes in a colder loft.
Tidy work
Dust sheets on the route in and every bit of packaging taken away.
Eaves kept clear
Insulation is held back from the eaves so the loft can still ventilate.

Questions about blown loft insulation in Ilkeston
How soon can you visit a home in Ilkeston?
We call you back to agree a time that suits you, and confirm the date in writing. Availability changes week to week, so we will give you the earliest slot we have.
Can you visit Ilkeston outside working hours?
Ask about early, late or weekend appointments when you get in touch, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.
Do you take on jobs outside Ilkeston?
Yes. We also work in Heanor and Long Eaton and elsewhere in Derbyshire.
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.
Is it messy?
The hose runs through the house, so we sheet the route and the landing. The fibre stays in the loft.
