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.
Boarding done properly
Storage boards go on loft legs, never straight onto the insulation.

Questions about old loft insulation removal in Oadby
Can a landlord in Oadby book work for a tenanted house?
Yes. We can arrange access with the tenant directly and send you photos once the work is finished.
Do you charge extra to travel to Oadby?
Not normally. Our guide prices include normal travel to Oadby. If an address needs a ferry or an unusually long journey, we tell you the cost before you book.
Do you take on jobs outside Oadby?
Yes. We also work in Wigston and Leicester and elsewhere in Leicestershire.
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.
