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.

Questions about a loft insulation top-up in Wilmslow
Will I get a written quote for work in Wilmslow?
Yes. Every quote is in writing with the work, the price and what is included, so you can compare it properly.
How do I pay for work in Wilmslow?
Payment terms are set out on your quote. We never ask for payment on the doorstep or in cash.
Can you visit Wilmslow 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.
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.
