Questions about old loft insulation removal in Scunthorpe
Can a landlord in Scunthorpe book work for a tenanted house?
Yes. We can arrange access with the tenant directly and send you photos once the work is finished.
Is loft work in Scunthorpe 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.
What do I need to do before you arrive in Scunthorpe?
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.
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.
