Eaves kept clear
Insulation is held back from the eaves so the loft can still ventilate.

Questions about a loft insulation top-up in Tavistock
Do you charge extra to travel to Tavistock?
Not normally. Our guide prices include normal travel to Tavistock. If an address needs a ferry or an unusually long journey, we tell you the cost before you book.
Can you visit Tavistock 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.
Will I get a written quote for work in Tavistock?
Yes. Every quote is in writing with the work, the price and what is included, so you can compare it properly.
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.
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.
