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 Longfield

How soon can you visit a home in Longfield?

We call you back to agree a time that suits you, and confirm the date in writing. Availability changes week to week, so we will give you the earliest slot we have.

Ask about early, late or weekend appointments when you get in touch, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.

Do you charge extra to travel to Longfield?

Not normally. Our guide prices include normal travel to Longfield. If an address needs a ferry or an unusually long journey, we tell you the cost before you book.

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.

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.
