Questions about rafter insulation in Bideford
Will I get a written quote for work in Bideford?
Yes. Every quote is in writing with the work, the price and what is included, so you can compare it properly.
Can a landlord in Bideford book work for a tenanted house?
Yes. We can arrange access with the tenant directly and send you photos once the work is finished.
Can you visit Bideford outside working hours?

Can I use the loft as a bedroom after rafter insulation?
Insulation alone does not make a loft habitable. Fire escape, stairs, floor strength and headroom all come into a conversion, which needs building control.
Is insulating between the rafters better than the loft floor?
Not for saving energy alone. Insulating the floor heats less space and costs far less. Rafter insulation is the right answer when the loft itself needs to be warm.
