Questions about sheep's wool or natural loft insulation in Spennymoor
Do you charge extra to travel to Spennymoor?
Not normally. Our guide prices include normal travel to Spennymoor. If an address needs a ferry or an unusually long journey, we tell you the cost before you book.
How do I pay for work in Spennymoor?
Payment terms are set out on your quote. We never ask for payment on the doorstep or in cash.
How soon can you visit a home in Spennymoor?
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.
Is sheep's wool insulation worth the extra cost?
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.
How deep does natural insulation need to be?
It depends on the product's thermal conductivity. Some need slightly more depth than mineral wool to reach the same U-value, which we allow for on the quote.
