Questions about loft insulation for a rented home in Ayr
Is loft work in Ayr different from anywhere else?
The method is the same, but older terraces, cottages and newer estates each have their own quirks: lath ceilings, low pitches or trussed roofs. We plan for the loft we find.
Do you charge extra to travel to Ayr?
Not normally. Our guide prices include normal travel to Ayr. If an address needs a ferry or an unusually long journey, we tell you the cost before you book.
Can you visit Ayr outside working hours?
Ask about early, late or weekend appointments when you get in touch, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.
Can you work around tenants?
Yes. We arrange access directly with tenants if you want, and most lofts are done in a day.
What energy rules apply to rented homes in Scotland?
