Loft insulation is one of the easiest methods of improving the energy efficiency of your home and we install it in just a couple of hours, making it a swift and convenient way for you to reduce your heating bills.
Our handy guide below explains what you can expect when our loft insulation specialists arrive.
One of our helpful surveyors will visit your property, at your convenience, to advise on what type and depth of insulation will be suitable for your loft.
We will then provide you with a quote for installing the insulation and advise you of any grants that may be available to assist with the cost of the insulation. Should you be eligible for a grant, it may be necessary to carry out further steps, such as a technical survey or Energy Performance Certificate (EPC), before the funding can be claimed.
We’ll arrange a time with you for one of our fully trained installation crews to come and install the loft insulation at your convenience. On arrival, we will show you our identification and lay dust sheets to ensure your home remains clean and tidy
Our installation technicians will check where the joists are before putting any weight on them and use boards to walk or crawl on where necessary. We will also thoroughly check the loft space for cables, lights or ventilation issues that must be accommodated during the loft insulation installation
Insulation is laid or blown (depending on the insulation type recommended for your loft) between the joists
Vent wedges are fitted to ensure air flow in the loft space
If required, pipes and cold-water tanks are fitted with loft insulation and the loft hatch is draught proofed. We can also install new loft hatches and loft ladders making access to your loft space easier and safer
You may want boarding laid over all or part of the insulation so the loft becomes a useable space for storage
The crew cleans up and you are informed the job is complete
You enjoy increased energy efficiency for your home and a reduction in your heating bills.
