What is different about insulating a flat's loft?
In most leasehold flats the loft belongs to the freeholder, so the managing agent or freeholder must agree to the work. Shared lofts usually have fire separation between flats that must not be disturbed. More about loft insulation for a flat.

Why book with us in Uckfield
Honest about grants
If you might qualify for funding, we tell you before we quote.
Boarding done properly
Storage boards go on loft legs, never straight onto the insulation.
Eaves kept clear
Insulation is held back from the eaves so the loft can still ventilate.
Fixed written price
The price on the quote is the price you pay. It only changes if you change the job, or if we find something hidden, such as rot, and you agree the change in writing first.
