25% of homes in Chard are terraced. Terrace lofts are usually compact, with brick party walls either side; the insulation should meet each wall without gaps, and we check the walls themselves are complete.

Questions about loft insulation in Chard
How many homes in Chard are houses?
82% of households live in a house or bungalow and 19% in a flat or maisonette, according to the 2021 Census.
What will it cost in Chard?
It depends on the size of the loft, what’s there now, the material and how easy the loft is to work in. We quote in writing, for free.
I rent in Chard. 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.
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.
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.
