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.
Tidy work
Dust sheets on the route in and every bit of packaging taken away.

Questions about old loft insulation removal in Paignton
How do I pay for work in Paignton?
Payment terms are set out on your quote. We never ask for payment on the doorstep or in cash.
Will I get a written quote for work in Paignton?
Yes. Every quote is in writing with the work, the price and what is included, so you can compare it properly.
Can a landlord in Paignton book work for a tenanted house?
Yes. We can arrange access with the tenant directly and send you photos once the work is finished.
When should old loft insulation be removed?
When it is wet, contaminated, smelly, badly compressed or hiding damage. Sound, dry insulation can usually stay and be topped up.
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.
