What is room-in-roof insulation?
Most rooms-in-roof are reached by stripping the existing plasterboard on the slopes, fitting insulation between and over the rafters, and re-boarding. Where there is access behind the knee walls, we insulate the eaves voids and the floor behind them too. More about room-in-roof insulation.

Questions about room-in-roof insulation in Longfield
Do you take on jobs outside Longfield?
Yes. We also work in Swanscombe and Gravesend and elsewhere in Kent.
Is loft work in Longfield 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 a landlord in Longfield book work for a tenanted house?
Yes. We can arrange access with the tenant directly and send you photos once the work is finished.
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.
