Questions about old loft insulation removal in Rickmansworth
Is loft work in Rickmansworth 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.
Do you take on jobs outside Rickmansworth?
Yes. We also work in Watford and Hemel Hempstead and elsewhere in Hertfordshire.
Will I get a written quote for work in Rickmansworth?
Yes. Every quote is in writing with the work, the price and what is included, so you can compare it properly.
What happens to the old insulation?
It is bagged and taken away for disposal as part of the price.
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.
