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 Shanklin
Do you charge extra to travel to Shanklin?
Shanklin is reached by ferry, so travel is priced separately and shown on the quote 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.

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.
