Questions about loft insulation in Carterton
How many homes in Carterton are houses?
86% of households live in a house or bungalow and 11% in a flat or maisonette, according to the 2021 Census.
My loft is boarded straight onto the joists. Is that a problem?

How deep should my loft insulation be?
Around 270 mm is the depth commonly recommended for mineral wool. We’ll suggest a depth for your loft in the quote.
Where will the insulation go?
On the loft floor, between the joists and in a layer across them, with the eaves left clear for air.
