Lofts in Monmouth
With 28% of households in semis, a common job here is topping up insulation that was laid years ago and adding storage that doesn’t squash it.
About one in five of homes here are terraced (18%). In a smaller loft, storage tends to end up sitting on the insulation, so a modest raised floor is often worth adding.
42% of households own their home outright, so many people have been in the same house for years. Insulation laid back then was often thinner than what’s suggested today and may have settled since.

Questions about loft insulation in Monmouth
What are most homes in Monmouth like?
The most common are detached houses (36% of households at the 2021 Census), followed by semi-detached houses at 28%.
Does sheep’s wool insulate as well as mineral wool?
About as well, depth for depth. People choose it because it’s pleasant to handle and copes well with damp.
My loft was insulated years ago. Should I add more?
Very possibly. If it sits level with the top of the joists or below, a second layer across them is usually worthwhile.
Do you quote for landlords in Monmouth?
Yes, in the same way as for homeowners.
Is natural insulation more expensive?
Usually, yes. Sheep’s wool and recycled polyester cost more than mineral wool; we can quote for both.
I’m in a village outside Monmouth. Can I still ask?
Of course. Villages and nearby towns such as Ross-on-Wye, Chepstow, Abergavenny, Pontypool and Thornbury are all covered. See all the towns we list in Monmouthshire.
