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.

Yes. Every quote is in writing with the work, the price and what is included, so you can compare it properly.
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.

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.
