Questions about sheep's wool or natural loft insulation in Ballycastle
What do I need to do before you arrive in Ballycastle?
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 cover all of BT54?

In an older breathable house, or if you care about the material, often yes. In a modern semi with plasterboard ceilings the extra cost buys little performance.
