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.
- Mineral wool to 270 to 300 mm across the whole loft floor
- Cables lifted clear of the insulation where possible
- Area under the cold water tank left clear so it cannot freeze

Questions about loft insulation in Norfolk
How do I book a survey in Norfolk?
Send the form or call us. We call back to agree a time and confirm it in writing.
Which council covers my address in Norfolk?
Addresses in Norfolk come under Norfolk council. The council matters for building control questions and some funding schemes.
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.
