Questions about loft insulation for a rented home in Cardiff
Is loft work in Cardiff 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.
Can a landlord in Cardiff book work for a tenanted house?
Yes. We can arrange access with the tenant directly and send you photos once the work is finished.
Do you take on jobs outside Cardiff?
Yes. We also work in Penarth and Trowbridge (South Glamorgan) and elsewhere in South Glamorgan.
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.
What EPC rating do rented homes need?
In England and Wales the current minimum is E, and the government has confirmed a move to C with a deadline of October 2030. Check the current rules on GOV.UK for your property.
