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.
- Build-up designed for your type of roof underlay
- Vapour control layer where the design needs one
- Rigid insulation between the rafters, joints taped

Questions about rafter insulation in Conisbrough
Is loft work in Conisbrough different from anywhere else?
The method is the same, but older terraces, cottages and newer estates each have their own quirks: lath ceilings, low pitches or trussed roofs. We plan for the loft we find.
How do I pay for work in Conisbrough?
Payment terms are set out on your quote. We never ask for payment on the doorstep or in cash.
Do you charge extra to travel to Conisbrough?
Not normally. Our guide prices include normal travel to Conisbrough. If an address needs a ferry or an unusually long journey, we tell you the cost before you book.
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.
