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.

- Eaves voids insulated where accessible

Questions about room-in-roof insulation in Scarborough
Do you charge extra to travel to Scarborough?
Not normally. Our guide prices include normal travel to Scarborough. If an address needs a ferry or an unusually long journey, we tell you the cost before you book.
Can a landlord in Scarborough book work for a tenanted house?
Yes. We can arrange access with the tenant directly and send you photos once the work is finished.
Do you take on jobs outside Scarborough?
Yes. We also work in Whitby and Malton and elsewhere in North Yorkshire.
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.
