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 second layer goes across the joists at right angles, which covers the timber and stops it acting as a cold bridge. More about loft insulation.
- Cables lifted clear of the insulation where possible
- Eaves kept clear, with ventilation trays where air could be blocked
- Waste packaging removed

Questions about loft insulation in Jarrow
Do you charge extra to travel to Jarrow?
Not normally. Our guide prices include normal travel to Jarrow. If an address needs a ferry or an unusually long journey, we tell you the cost before you book.

Yes. We also work in Hebburn and Wallsend and elsewhere in Tyne and Wear.
How soon can you visit a home in Jarrow?
We call you back to agree a time that suits you, and confirm the date in writing. Availability changes week to week, so we will give you the earliest slot we have.
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 long does it take to insulate a loft?
Most lofts in houses take a single day. A large bungalow loft, a loft that needs clearing first or one with awkward access can run into a second day.
