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 Radcliffe

Do you cover all of M26?

Yes, we cover the M26 postcode district and the districts around Radcliffe.

Can a landlord in Radcliffe book work for a tenanted house?

Yes. We can arrange access with the tenant directly and send you photos once the work is finished.

Will I get a written quote for work in Radcliffe?

Yes. Every quote is in writing with the work, the price and what is included, so you can compare it properly.

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.

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.
