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.
- Mineral wool to 270 to 300 mm across the whole loft floor
- Tank jacket and pipe lagging in the loft
- Eaves kept clear, with ventilation trays where air could be blocked

Questions about loft insulation in Eastbourne
Is loft work in Eastbourne different from anywhere else?
The method is the same, but older terraces, cottages and newer estates each have their own quirks: lath ceilings, low pitches or trussed roofs. We plan for the loft we find.
Do you take on jobs outside Eastbourne?
Yes. We also work in Hailsham and Seaford and elsewhere in East Sussex.
Do you cover all of BN21?
Yes, we cover the BN21 postcode district and the districts around Eastbourne.
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.
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.
