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 Guisborough

What do I need to do before you arrive in Guisborough?

Clear a path to the hatch and, if you can, move stored items away from the area we will be working in. Tell us about anything heavy or fragile.

Can a landlord in Guisborough book work for a tenanted house?

Yes. We can arrange access with the tenant directly and send you photos once the work is finished.

Do you charge extra to travel to Guisborough?

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

Is it worth topping up 100 mm of loft insulation?

Often, if the existing layer is in good condition and you also want a warmer house or a better EPC. On bill savings alone, a top-up from about 100 mm takes decades to pay back, so the case is strongest when it is done alongside other loft work.

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.
