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.
- Cross layer to a total of 270 to 300 mm

Questions about a loft insulation top-up in Lanarkshire
Are your prices the same across Lanarkshire?
Yes. Our guide prices are the same everywhere we work, and they include normal travel. Your fixed price depends on your loft, not your postcode.
Can you quote for several properties in Lanarkshire?
Yes. Landlords and agents can send a list of addresses and we will survey them in as few visits as we can.
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.
