What is loft insulation?
We lay the first layer to the depth of the joists, usually 100 mm, so it fills each bay edge to edge with no gaps. The second layer goes across the joists at right angles, which covers the timber and stops it acting as a cold bridge. More about loft insulation.
- Eaves kept clear, with ventilation trays where air could be blocked
- Area under the cold water tank left clear so it cannot freeze
- Mineral wool to 270 to 300 mm across the whole loft floor

Boarding done properly
Storage boards go on loft legs, never straight onto the insulation.

The price on the quote is the price you pay. It only changes if you change the job, or if we find something hidden, such as rot, and you agree the change in writing first.
Honest about grants
If you might qualify for funding, we tell you before we quote.
Plain-English advice
We explain what we find in plain English, and say so when nothing needs doing.

Questions about loft insulation in Flint
Do you take on jobs outside Flint?
Yes. We also work in Deeside and Mold and elsewhere in Clwyd.
Will I get a written quote for work in Flint?
Yes. Every quote is in writing with the work, the price and what is included, so you can compare it properly.
What do I need to do before you arrive in Flint?
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.
How deep should loft insulation be?
The Energy Saving Trust recommends at least 270 mm of mineral wool, and that is the depth we install as standard. Building regulations also set an energy standard for the roof when a loft is insulated. It differs between England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland, so we confirm the target for your address on the quote.
Can you insulate around downlights?
Recessed downlights need clearance or a fire-rated cover so they do not overheat. We fit covers where needed and leave a clear zone around fittings that cannot be covered.
