What is a loft insulation top-up?

Questions about a loft insulation top-up in Morden
Can a landlord in Morden book work for a tenanted house?
Yes. We can arrange access with the tenant directly and send you photos once the work is finished.
Do you charge extra to travel to Morden?
Not normally. Our guide prices include normal travel to Morden. If an address needs a ferry or an unusually long journey, we tell you the cost before you book.
Is loft work in Morden 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.
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.
