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.

Boarding done properly

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

Eaves kept clear

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

Questions about loft insulation in Eastwood

What do I need to do before you arrive in Eastwood?

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.

Do you charge extra to travel to Eastwood?

Not normally. Our guide prices include normal travel to Eastwood. If an address needs a ferry or an unusually long journey, we tell you the cost before you book.

Will I get a written quote for work in Eastwood?

Yes. Every quote is in writing with the work, the price and what is included, so you can compare it properly.

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.

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.
