Questions about room-in-roof insulation in Bishop Auckland
Do you take on jobs outside Bishop Auckland?
Yes. We also work in Spennymoor and Newton Aycliffe and elsewhere in County Durham.
Can a landlord in Bishop Auckland book work for a tenanted house?
Yes. We can arrange access with the tenant directly and send you photos once the work is finished.
Is loft work in Bishop Auckland 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 the room get smaller?
Slightly. Insulated plasterboard over the rafters takes a few centimetres off each slope.
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.
