Questions about old loft insulation removal in Greenwich
Is loft work in Greenwich 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 I get a written quote for work in Greenwich?
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 Greenwich book work for a tenanted house?
Yes. We can arrange access with the tenant directly and send you photos once the work is finished.
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.
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.
