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 North Yorkshire

Which council covers my address in North Yorkshire?

Councils in North Yorkshire include North Yorkshire, York, Middlesbrough and Redcar and Cleveland. Your council matters for building control questions and some funding schemes.

How do I book a survey in North Yorkshire?

Send the form or call us. We call back to agree a time and confirm it in writing.

Do I need to empty my loft first?

The floor needs to be clear for the insulation to go down. If moving things yourself is difficult, tell us at the survey and we can price clearing and putting items back on raised boarding.

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.
