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.

We measure before we quote

Existing depth, joist spacing, wiring and the tank are checked, not guessed.

Eaves kept clear

Questions about blown loft insulation in the Scottish Borders

Which council covers my address in the Scottish Borders?

Addresses in the Scottish Borders come under Scottish Borders council. The council matters for building control questions and some funding schemes.

How do I book a survey in the Scottish Borders?

Send the form or call us. We call back to agree a time and confirm it in writing.

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.

Is it messy?

The hose runs through the house, so we sheet the route and the landing. The fibre stays in the loft.
