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 Borehamwood
Do you charge extra to travel to Borehamwood?
Not normally. Our guide prices include normal travel to Borehamwood. If an address needs a ferry or an unusually long journey, we tell you the cost before you book.
Will I get a written quote for work in Borehamwood?
Yes. Every quote is in writing with the work, the price and what is included, so you can compare it properly.
Can a landlord in Borehamwood book work for a tenanted house?
Yes. We can arrange access with the tenant directly and send you photos once the work is finished.
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.
