Questions about room-in-roof insulation in Reading
Do you charge extra to travel to Reading?
Not normally. Our guide prices include normal travel to Reading. If an address needs a ferry or an unusually long journey, we tell you the cost before you book.
Is loft work in Reading 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.
Will I get a written quote for work in Reading?
Yes. Every quote is in writing with the work, the price and what is included, so you can compare it properly.
Can it be done without removing the plasterboard?
Sometimes the flat ceiling and eaves voids can be reached from behind. The slopes almost always need the boards off to insulate them properly.
How long does room-in-roof insulation take?
Usually three to six working days for one room, depending on how much is stripped and how it is finished.
