Questions about sheep's wool or natural loft insulation in Dunblane
Do you charge extra to travel to Dunblane?
Not normally. Our guide prices include normal travel to Dunblane. If an address needs a ferry or an unusually long journey, we tell you the cost before you book.
What do I need to do before you arrive in Dunblane?
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.
Is loft work in Dunblane different from anywhere else?
The method is the same, but older terraces, cottages and newer estates each have their own quirks: lath ceilings, low pitches or trussed roofs. We plan for the loft we find.
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.
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.
