Questions about a loft insulation top-up in Dunoon
Can you visit Dunoon outside working hours?
Ask about early, late or weekend appointments when you get in touch, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.
Do you take on jobs outside Dunoon?
Yes. We also work in Helensburgh and Tighnabruaich and elsewhere in Argyll and Bute.
Will I get a written quote for work in Dunoon?
Yes. Every quote is in writing with the work, the price and what is included, so you can compare it properly.
Can I still store things in the loft after a top-up?
Not directly on the insulation. A 270 mm layer stands well above the joists, so storage needs raised boarding on loft legs.
Which way should the top-up layer run?
Across the joists, at right angles to the first layer. That covers the tops of the joists, which otherwise let heat escape along the timber.
