What is room-in-roof insulation?

Existing depth, joist spacing, wiring and the tank are checked, not guessed.

Questions about room-in-roof insulation in Leigh
How soon can you visit a home in Leigh?
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.
Do you charge extra to travel to Leigh?
Not normally. Our guide prices include normal travel to Leigh. If an address needs a ferry or an unusually long journey, we tell you the cost before you book.
Do you take on jobs outside Leigh?
Yes. We also work in Atherton and Tyldesley and elsewhere in Greater Manchester.
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.
