Questions about old loft insulation removal in Penzance
How soon can you visit a home in Penzance?
We call you back to agree a time that suits you, and confirm the date in writing. Availability changes week to week, so we will give you the earliest slot we have.
Do you take on jobs outside Penzance?
Yes. We also work in St Ives (Cornwall) and Camborne and elsewhere in Cornwall.
Is loft work in Penzance 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.
Could my old loft insulation contain asbestos?
Most mineral wool does not. Loose, pebble-like vermiculite fill can, and needs testing before anyone disturbs it.
What happens to the old insulation?
It is bagged and taken away for disposal as part of the price.
