What a well-insulated loft looks like

Whatever the job, this is what you’re paying for. It’s worth knowing, and every part of it is in our quotes.

Cross-section of an insulated loft: insulation between and across the ceiling joists, clear eaves, raised storage boarding, an insulated hatch and lagged pipes 1 2 3 4 5 6
  1. Insulation between the joists

    The first layer fills the gaps between the ceiling joists, sitting on the ceiling of the rooms below.

  2. A second layer across them

    Laid at right angles over the joists, so the timber isn’t a cold bridge. For mineral wool, 270mm in total is the depth commonly recommended.

  3. Eaves left clear

    A gap at the edges lets air move through the roof space, which stops condensation building up.

  4. Raised boarding for storage

    Boards on supports above the insulation, so you can store things without squashing it.

  5. Insulated, draught-proofed hatch

    The hatch is a hole in the insulation unless it’s insulated and sealed too.

  6. Pipes and tanks protected

    A well-insulated loft is colder, so water pipes and any tank up there need lagging against frost.

What we can get quoted

All of it happens in the loft: insulation, the problems people find up there, and storage that doesn’t squash the insulation.

Loft Insulation
Loft insulation is laid between and over the ceiling joists to slow heat escaping through the roof. In most pitched-roof homes it is one of the simplest insulation jobs to arrange.
Loft Insulation Top-Up
A top-up adds a new layer across the joists over insulation that is still dry and in good condition, so the loft reaches the recommended depth.
Loft Insulation Removal
Removal means taking out the existing insulation, bagging and disposing of it, and cleaning the loft so new insulation can be laid on a sound base.
Raised Loft Boarding
Raised loft boarding is a storage floor fixed on supports above the joists, high enough that the insulation underneath is not compressed.
Spray Foam Removal
Spray foam removal means cutting and scraping the foam off the rafters and roof covering, clearing it from the loft and leaving the timbers visible so their condition can be checked.
Loft Ventilation
Vents at the eaves, in the roof slope or along the ridge so damp air can leave the loft, and insulation kept back from the edges so it doesn’t block them.
Loft Condensation and Mould
A look at where the moisture comes from, then the work to stop it: usually ventilation, sealing, and replacing any insulation that has got wet.
Loft Pest-Proofing
The gaps that let mice, rats, squirrels and birds into the loft found and sealed, and the mess they’ve left cleared and re-insulated.
Loft Clearance and Cleaning
Everything that shouldn’t be in the loft taken out and disposed of, and the loft cleaned so it is ready for new insulation or storage.
Loft Ladders and Hatches
A loft ladder fitted to your hatch, the hatch made bigger where the joists allow, and the hatch insulated and sealed so it isn’t a hole in your insulation.
Loft Inspection
We look at your loft and tell you what is there, what condition it is in and what, if anything, it needs.
