Questions about old loft insulation removal in Ponteland
What do I need to do before you arrive in Ponteland?
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.
Do you cover all of NE20?
Yes, we cover the NE20 postcode district and the districts around Ponteland.
Is loft work in Ponteland 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 happens to the old insulation?
It is bagged and taken away for disposal as part of the price.
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.
