Questions about old loft insulation removal in Margate
Is loft work in Margate 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 cover all of CT9?
Yes, we cover the CT9 postcode district and the districts around Margate.
Do you take on jobs outside Margate?
Yes. We also work in Broadstairs and Ramsgate and elsewhere in Kent.
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.
