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.
- Tank jacket and pipe lagging in the loft
- Mineral wool to 270 to 300 mm across the whole loft floor
- Cables lifted clear of the insulation where possible

Questions about loft insulation in Huyton
Will I get a written quote for work in Huyton?
Yes. Every quote is in writing with the work, the price and what is included, so you can compare it properly.
Do you charge extra to travel to Huyton?
Not normally. Our guide prices include normal travel to Huyton. If an address needs a ferry or an unusually long journey, we tell you the cost before you book.
How soon can you visit a home in Huyton?
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.
How deep should loft insulation be?
The Energy Saving Trust recommends at least 270 mm of mineral wool, and that is the depth we install as standard. Building regulations also set an energy standard for the roof when a loft is insulated. It differs between England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland, so we confirm the target for your address on the quote.
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.
