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
- Waste packaging removed
- Mineral wool to 270 to 300 mm across the whole loft floor
Why book with us in Swaffham

Insulation is held back from the eaves so the loft can still ventilate.
Photos of the finished loft
You see the work done without climbing the ladder.
Boarding done properly
Storage boards go on loft legs, never straight onto the insulation.
Tank and pipes protected
Every insulation job includes a tank jacket and pipe lagging, so nothing freezes in a colder loft.
