Questions about sheep's wool or natural loft insulation in Kendal
What do I need to do before you arrive in Kendal?
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.
Will I get a written quote for work in Kendal?
Yes. Every quote is in writing with the work, the price and what is included, so you can compare it properly.
How do I pay for work in Kendal?
Payment terms are set out on your quote. We never ask for payment on the doorstep or in cash.
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.
Do moths eat sheep's wool insulation?
Insulation-grade sheep's wool is treated against insects. We use products sold for loft insulation, not raw fleece.
