Questions about room-in-roof insulation in Washington
Can a landlord in Washington book work for a tenanted house?

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 cover all of NE38?

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.
