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.

Questions about blown loft insulation in South Ockendon
Will I get a written quote for work in South Ockendon?
Yes. Every quote is in writing with the work, the price and what is included, so you can compare it properly.
How do I pay for work in South Ockendon?
Payment terms are set out on your quote. We never ask for payment on the doorstep or in cash.
Is loft work in South Ockendon 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.
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 it messy?
The hose runs through the house, so we sheet the route and the landing. The fibre stays in the loft.
