What is rafter insulation?

Because the whole roof slope, the gables and the party walls now have to be insulated, this costs much more than insulating the floor and saves less heat for the money. We check the roof underlay first: a breathable membrane and a felt with no ventilation gap need different build-ups to avoid condensation. More about rafter insulation.

Questions about rafter insulation in Lancashire

Do you cover the whole of Lancashire?

Yes. We cover every town and village in Lancashire, including Preston, Burnley and Blackburn.

Which council covers my address in Lancashire?

Councils in Lancashire include Lancashire, Blackburn with Darwen and Blackpool. Your council matters for building control questions and some funding schemes.

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.

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.
