Lofts in Nottingham
Semis (32% of homes in Nottingham) often have lofts that have slowly filled with boxes. Insulation pressed flat underneath works far less well; raising the storage lets it recover its depth.
With 26% of households in terraced homes, small lofts reached through a narrow landing hatch are common in Nottingham. They’re quick to insulate well, as long as the eaves are kept clear.
26% of homes in Nottingham are flats. Only the top floor sits under a roof space, which usually belongs to the freeholder, so it’s worth checking your lease before planning any work.
30% of households rent privately. If you’re renting, insulation is something to raise with your landlord, who looks after the building; landlords can ask us for a quote in the usual way.

Questions about loft insulation in Nottingham
How many homes in Nottingham are houses?
74% of households live in a house or bungalow and 26% in a flat or maisonette, according to the 2021 Census.
Do you cover places near Nottingham?
Yes, we work across England and Wales, including Arnold, West Bridgford, Beeston, Carlton and Clifton. See all the towns we list in Nottingham.
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.
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.
What will it cost in Nottingham?
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.
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.
