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 North Yorkshire

Do you cover the whole of North Yorkshire?

Yes. We cover every town and village in North Yorkshire, including York, Middlesbrough and Harrogate.

Can you quote for several properties in North Yorkshire?

Yes. Landlords and agents can send a list of addresses and we will survey them in as few visits as we can.

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.

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.
