What is a loft insulation top-up?
Before we quote we measure the existing layer in several places and check its condition. If it is dry, even and not contaminated, we keep it and lay the top-up across it at right angles. More about a loft insulation top-up.
- Eaves ventilation kept clear
- Gaps in the existing layer filled

Why book with us in Luton
Tank and pipes protected
Every insulation job includes a tank jacket and pipe lagging, so nothing freezes in a colder loft.
Eaves kept clear
Insulation is held back from the eaves so the loft can still ventilate.
We measure before we quote
Existing depth, joist spacing, wiring and the tank are checked, not guessed.
No pressure selling
You get everything in writing and decide in your own time.
How much does a loft insulation top-up cost in Luton?
Installing insulation in a home is zero-rated for VAT until 31 March 2027 and 5% after that, under HMRC's rules for energy-saving materials (notice 708/6).
Building regulations in England
In England, a loft insulated across more than half its area should reach a U-value of 0.16 W/m²K. Insulation alone is not usually notified to building control. How the rules work across the UK.
Questions about a loft insulation top-up in Luton
Do you charge extra to travel to Luton?
Not normally. Our guide prices include normal travel to Luton. If an address needs a ferry or an unusually long journey, we tell you the cost before you book.
How do I pay for work in Luton?
Payment terms are set out on your quote. We never ask for payment on the doorstep or in cash.
Do you cover all of LU1?
Yes, we cover the LU1 postcode district and the districts around Luton.
Can new insulation go on top of old insulation?
Yes, if the old layer is dry, clean and reasonably even. If it is damp, contaminated or badly compressed we recommend removing it first.
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.
