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.
- Waste packaging removed
- Cables lifted clear of the insulation where possible
- Area under the cold water tank left clear so it cannot freeze

Questions about loft insulation in Ilfracombe
Do you charge extra to travel to Ilfracombe?
Not normally. Our guide prices include normal travel to Ilfracombe. If an address needs a ferry or an unusually long journey, we tell you the cost before you book.
Do you take on jobs outside Ilfracombe?
Yes. We also work in Barnstaple and Bideford and elsewhere in Devon.
Will I get a written quote for work in Ilfracombe?
Yes. Every quote is in writing with the work, the price and what is included, so you can compare it properly.
Does loft insulation need building control approval?
On its own it usually does not, but the work still has to meet the energy standard. The rules differ across England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland, so we confirm the position for your address on the quote.
How long does it take to insulate a loft?
Most lofts in houses take a single day. A large bungalow loft, a loft that needs clearing first or one with awkward access can run into a second day.
