Questions about old loft insulation removal in Dolgellau
Do you charge extra to travel to Dolgellau?
Not normally. Our guide prices include normal travel to Dolgellau. If an address needs a ferry or an unusually long journey, we tell you the cost before you book.
What do I need to do before you arrive in Dolgellau?
Clear a path to the hatch and, if you can, move stored items away from the area we will be working in. Tell us about anything heavy or fragile.
Can you visit Dolgellau outside working hours?
Ask about early, late or weekend appointments when you get in touch, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.
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.
