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.
- Area under the cold water tank left clear so it cannot freeze
- Cables lifted clear of the insulation where possible
- Eaves kept clear, with ventilation trays where air could be blocked
Why book with us in Morden
Photos of the finished loft
You see the work done without climbing the ladder.
Boarding done properly
Storage boards go on loft legs, never straight onto the insulation.
Eaves kept clear
Insulation is held back from the eaves so the loft can still ventilate.
Tank and pipes protected
Every insulation job includes a tank jacket and pipe lagging, so nothing freezes in a colder loft.
How much does loft insulation cost in Morden?

Questions about loft insulation in Morden
How soon can you visit a home in Morden?
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.

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.
Will loft insulation make my loft colder?
Yes, and that is expected. The insulation keeps the heat in the rooms below, so the loft above runs closer to the outdoor temperature. That is why pipes and the tank are lagged as part of the job.
