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

Questions about loft insulation in Dingwall

Is loft work in Dingwall 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 charge extra to travel to Dingwall?

Not normally. Our guide prices include normal travel to Dingwall. If an address needs a ferry or an unusually long journey, we tell you the cost before you book.

What do I need to do before you arrive in Dingwall?

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.

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.

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.
