Questions about loft insulation for a rented home in Derry/Londonderry

Will I get a written quote for work in Derry/Londonderry?

Do you cover all of BT48?

Yes, we cover the BT48 postcode district and the districts around Derry/Londonderry.

Is loft work in Derry/Londonderry 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.

Will loft insulation improve my EPC rating?

It usually adds points, and from no insulation it can be significant. Whether it moves a whole band depends on the rest of the property.

Yes. We arrange access directly with tenants if you want, and most lofts are done in a day.
