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 wet, dirty, matted or full of droppings, laying fresh wool on top just buries the problem, so we say so and price removal instead. More about a loft insulation top-up.
- Gaps in the existing layer filled
- Eaves ventilation kept clear
- Depth check and photos before and after

Questions about a loft insulation top-up in Chesterfield
What do I need to do before you arrive in Chesterfield?
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 charge extra to travel to Chesterfield?
Not normally. Our guide prices include normal travel to Chesterfield. If an address needs a ferry or an unusually long journey, we tell you the cost before you book.
Do you cover all of S41?
Yes, we cover the S41 postcode district and the districts around Chesterfield.
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.
Is it worth topping up 100 mm of loft insulation?
Often, if the existing layer is in good condition and you also want a warmer house or a better EPC. On bill savings alone, a top-up from about 100 mm takes decades to pay back, so the case is strongest when it is done alongside other loft work.
