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.

Why book with us in Bury
No pressure selling
You get everything in writing and decide in your own time.
Tank and pipes protected
Every insulation job includes a tank jacket and pipe lagging, so nothing freezes in a colder loft.
Boarding done properly
Storage boards go on loft legs, never straight onto the insulation.
Honest about grants
If you might qualify for funding, we tell you before we quote.
How much does a loft insulation top-up cost in Bury?
Installing insulation in a home is zero-rated for VAT until 31 March 2027 and 5% after that, under HMRC's rules for energy-saving materials (notice 708/6).
Building regulations in England
In England, a loft insulated across more than half its area should reach a U-value of 0.16 W/m²K. Insulation alone is not usually notified to building control. How the rules work across the UK.
Questions about a loft insulation top-up in Bury
Do you charge extra to travel to Bury?
Not normally. Our guide prices include normal travel to Bury. If an address needs a ferry or an unusually long journey, we tell you the cost before you book.
Do you take on jobs outside Bury?
Yes. We also work in Radcliffe and Heywood and elsewhere in Greater Manchester.
How do I pay for work in Bury?
Payment terms are set out on your quote. We never ask for payment on the doorstep or in cash.
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.
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.
