Questions about rafter insulation in Ashford, Kent

Ask about early, late or weekend appointments when you get in touch, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.

Not normally. Our guide prices include normal travel to Ashford, Kent. If an address needs a ferry or an unusually long journey, we tell you the cost before you book.
Do you take on jobs outside Ashford, Kent?
Yes. We also work in Faversham and Canterbury and elsewhere in Kent.
Will it cause condensation?
It can if the build-up is wrong for the roof. Old bitumen felt needs a ventilation gap behind the insulation; a modern breathable membrane may not. We check before we design it.
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.
