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.

Area under the cold water tank left clear so it cannot freeze

Questions about loft insulation in Sittingbourne

Do you charge extra to travel to Sittingbourne?

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

How do I pay for work in Sittingbourne?

Payment terms are set out on your quote. We never ask for payment on the doorstep or in cash.

Can a landlord in Sittingbourne book work for a tenanted house?

Yes. We can arrange access with the tenant directly and send you photos once the work is finished.

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.
