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 wet, dirty, matted or full of droppings, laying fresh wool on top just buries the problem, so we say so and price removal instead. More about a loft insulation top-up.
- Cross layer to a total of 270 to 300 mm
- Gaps in the existing layer filled
- Tank jacket and pipe lagging in the loft

Questions about a loft insulation top-up in Basingstoke
Can you visit Basingstoke outside working hours?
Ask about early, late or weekend appointments when you get in touch, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.
Can a landlord in Basingstoke 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 Basingstoke?
Yes. Every quote is in writing with the work, the price and what is included, so you can compare it properly.
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.
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.
