What is sheep's wool or natural loft insulation?
Sheep's wool and wood fibre are vapour-open and can take up and release moisture. The trade-off is cost: natural materials usually cost two to three times as much as mineral wool for the same performance. More about sheep's wool or natural loft insulation.

Questions about sheep's wool or natural loft insulation in Southampton
Do you take on jobs outside Southampton?
Yes. We also work in Hythe and Totton and elsewhere in Hampshire.
Will I get a written quote for work in Southampton?
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 Southampton?
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.
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.
