Questions about blown loft insulation in Gillingham
Do you take on jobs outside Gillingham?
Yes. We also work in Chatham and Rochester and elsewhere in Kent.
Can a landlord in Gillingham book work for a tenanted house?
Yes. We can arrange access with the tenant directly and send you photos once the work is finished.
How do I pay for work in Gillingham?
Payment terms are set out on your quote. We never ask for payment on the doorstep or in cash.
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.
