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.

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.
Downlights made safe
Fire-rated covers or a clear zone around recessed lights.
We measure before we quote
Existing depth, joist spacing, wiring and the tank are checked, not guessed.

Questions about a loft insulation top-up in Whitefield
Do you take on jobs outside Whitefield?
Yes. We also work in Radcliffe and Prestwich and elsewhere in Greater Manchester.
Can a landlord in Whitefield book work for a tenanted house?
Yes. We can arrange access with the tenant directly and send you photos once the work is finished.
How do I pay for work in Whitefield?
Payment terms are set out on your quote. We never ask for payment on the doorstep or in cash.
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.
