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. It earns its place when you need a warm loft. More about rafter insulation.

Questions about rafter insulation in Nottinghamshire

Which council covers my address in Nottinghamshire?

Councils in Nottinghamshire include Nottingham and Nottinghamshire. Your council matters for building control questions and some funding schemes.

Do you cover the whole of Nottinghamshire?

Yes. We cover every town and village in Nottinghamshire, including Nottingham, Mansfield and Worksop.

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.

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.
