What is different when you are a landlord?
Rented homes in England and Wales must meet a minimum EPC rating to be let, and the government has confirmed it will rise to band C, with a deadline of October 2030. Loft insulation alone rarely moves a whole band, but it is one of the first measures an assessor looks for. More about loft insulation for a rented home.

Why book with us in Preston
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.
Eaves kept clear
Insulation is held back from the eaves so the loft can still ventilate.
We measure before we quote
Existing depth, joist spacing, wiring and the tank are checked, not guessed.
Honest about grants
If you might qualify for funding, we tell you before we quote.
How much does loft insulation for a rented home cost in Preston?
