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 finished depth sits at 270 mm or more, the depth the Energy Saving Trust recommends. More about loft insulation.

Questions about loft insulation in Derbyshire

Can you quote for several properties in Derbyshire?

Yes. Landlords and agents can send a list of addresses and we will survey them in as few visits as we can.

How do I book a survey in Derbyshire?

Send the form or call us. We call back to agree a time and confirm it in writing.

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.

Do I need to empty my loft first?

The floor needs to be clear for the insulation to go down. If moving things yourself is difficult, tell us at the survey and we can price clearing and putting items back on raised boarding.
