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.

Questions about loft insulation in Prescot

Do you take on jobs outside Prescot?

Yes. We also work in Huyton and St Helens and elsewhere in Merseyside.

Do you charge extra to travel to Prescot?

Not normally. Our guide prices include normal travel to Prescot. 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 Prescot?

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.

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.
