Questions about a loft insulation top-up in Droylsden
Do you take on jobs outside Droylsden?
Yes. We also work in Failsworth and Denton and elsewhere in Greater Manchester.
Is loft work in Droylsden 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.
Will I get a written quote for work in Droylsden?
Yes. Every quote is in writing with the work, the price and what is included, so you can compare it properly.
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.
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.
