Questions about loft insulation in Bolton
How many homes in Bolton are houses?
84% of households live in a house or bungalow and 16% in a flat or maisonette, according to the 2021 Census.
I rent in Bolton. Can I have my loft insulated?
It’s your landlord’s decision, as they’re responsible for the building. Council and housing association tenants should contact their landlord’s repairs team. Landlords can ask us for a quote.
How long does the work take?
Most lofts are done in a day. Taking out old insulation or adding boarding can add time; the quote will say.
My loft is boarded straight onto the joists. Is that a problem?
It usually means the insulation underneath is squashed. We can lift the boards, insulate properly and refit them on a raised floor.
Do you cover places near Bolton?
Yes, we work across England and Wales, including Farnworth, Little Lever, Kearsley, Little Hulton and Horwich. See all the towns we list in Bolton.
