Questions about blown loft insulation in Swanscombe
Do you charge extra to travel to Swanscombe?
Not normally. Our guide prices include normal travel to Swanscombe. 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 Swanscombe?
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 Swanscombe book work for a tenanted house?
Yes. We can arrange access with the tenant directly and send you photos once the work is finished.
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.
