Questions about a loft insulation top-up in Havant
Do you charge extra to travel to Havant?
Not normally. Our guide prices include normal travel to Havant. If an address needs a ferry or an unusually long journey, we tell you the cost before you book.

Yes. We also work in Waterlooville and Hayling Island and elsewhere in Hampshire.
Can you visit Havant 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 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.
