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 Callander

Is loft work in Callander different from anywhere else?

The method is the same, but older terraces, cottages and newer estates each have their own quirks: lath ceilings, low pitches or trussed roofs. We plan for the loft we find.

Do you charge extra to travel to Callander?

Not normally. Our guide prices include normal travel to Callander. If an address needs a ferry or an unusually long journey, we tell you the cost before you book.

Can you visit Callander 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.

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.

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.
