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.

Why book with us in Liverpool

Tank and pipes protected

Every insulation job includes a tank jacket and pipe lagging, so nothing freezes in a colder loft.

Boarding done properly

Storage boards go on loft legs, never straight onto the insulation.

We measure before we quote

Existing depth, joist spacing, wiring and the tank are checked, not guessed.

Eaves kept clear

Insulation is held back from the eaves so the loft can still ventilate.

Questions about loft insulation in Liverpool

Is loft work in Liverpool 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 cover all of L3?

Yes, we cover the L3 postcode district and the districts around Liverpool.

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

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

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.

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.
