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 Berwick-upon-Tweed

How do I pay for work in Berwick-upon-Tweed?

Payment terms are set out on your quote. We never ask for payment on the doorstep or in cash.

Do you take on jobs outside Berwick-upon-Tweed?

Yes. We also work in Alnwick and Morpeth and elsewhere in Northumberland.

How soon can you visit a home in Berwick-upon-Tweed?

We call you back to agree a time that suits you, and confirm the date in writing. Availability changes week to week, so we will give you the earliest slot we have.

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.
