Questions about room-in-roof insulation in Chelsea
How soon can you visit a home in Chelsea?
We call you back to agree a time that suits you, and confirm the date in writing. Availability changes week to week, so we will give you the earliest slot we have.
What do I need to do before you arrive in Chelsea?
Clear a path to the hatch and, if you can, move stored items away from the area we will be working in. Tell us about anything heavy or fragile.
Is loft work in Chelsea 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.
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.
Will the room get smaller?
Slightly. Insulated plasterboard over the rafters takes a few centimetres off each slope.
