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.

Boarding done properly
Storage boards go on loft legs, never straight onto the insulation.
We measure before we quote
Existing depth, joist spacing, wiring and the tank are checked, not guessed.
Tidy work
Dust sheets on the route in and every bit of packaging taken away.
Eaves kept clear
Insulation is held back from the eaves so the loft can still ventilate.
