Do you cover places near Egham?
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.
Can I insulate the loft above my top-floor flat?
Usually only with the freeholder’s or managing agent’s agreement. Check your lease, then let us know when you get in touch.
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.
