Questions about loft insulation in Northampton
How many homes in Northampton are houses?
80% of households live in a house or bungalow and 20% in a flat or maisonette, according to the 2021 Census.
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.
I rent in Northampton. 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.
What will it cost in Northampton?
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.
