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 Batley
Can a landlord in Batley book work for a tenanted house?
Yes. We can arrange access with the tenant directly and send you photos once the work is finished.
Do you take on jobs outside Batley?
Yes. We also work in Dewsbury and Liversedge and elsewhere in West Yorkshire.
Do you cover all of WF13?
Yes, we cover the WF13 postcode district and the districts around Batley.
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.
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.
