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 Doncaster
Will I get a written quote for work in Doncaster?
Yes. Every quote is in writing with the work, the price and what is included, so you can compare it properly.
Do you cover all of DN1?
Yes, we cover the DN1 postcode district and the districts around Doncaster.
How do I pay for work in Doncaster?
Payment terms are set out on your quote. We never ask for payment on the doorstep or in cash.
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.
