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.
- Waste packaging removed
- Cables lifted clear of the insulation where possible
- Mineral wool to 270 to 300 mm across the whole loft floor

Questions about loft insulation in Dudley
Do you charge extra to travel to Dudley?
Not normally. Our guide prices include normal travel to Dudley. 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 Dudley?
Yes. Every quote is in writing with the work, the price and what is included, so you can compare it properly.
Can a landlord in Dudley book work for a tenanted house?
Yes. We can arrange access with the tenant directly and send you photos once the work is finished.
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.
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.
