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.

Why book with us in Saffron Walden
Eaves kept clear
Insulation is held back from the eaves so the loft can still ventilate.
We measure before we quote
Existing depth, joist spacing, wiring and the tank are checked, not guessed.
Tank and pipes protected
Every insulation job includes a tank jacket and pipe lagging, so nothing freezes in a colder loft.
Plain-English advice
We explain what we find in plain English, and say so when nothing needs doing.
How much does blown loft insulation cost in Saffron Walden?
Installing insulation in a home is zero-rated for VAT until 31 March 2027 and 5% after that, under HMRC's rules for energy-saving materials (notice 708/6).

Questions about blown loft insulation in Saffron Walden
How do I pay for work in Saffron Walden?
Payment terms are set out on your quote. We never ask for payment on the doorstep or in cash.
How soon can you visit a home in Saffron Walden?
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.
Do you charge extra to travel to Saffron Walden?
Not normally. Our guide prices include normal travel to Saffron Walden. If an address needs a ferry or an unusually long journey, we tell you the cost before you book.
Is it messy?
The hose runs through the house, so we sheet the route and the landing. The fibre stays in the loft.
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.
