The loft jobs we see in Reigate
29% of homes in Reigate are semi-detached. A typical semi has a roomy loft with one party wall, plenty of space to insulate well and often to store things too, on a floor raised above the insulation.
Terraces make up 14% of the housing here. Many are older, with roofs that like to stay dry, so breathable materials such as sheep’s wool can be a comfortable fit alongside good airflow at the eaves.
Flats and maisonettes account for 31% of homes here. If yours is on the top floor, the loft above is often shared, and the freeholder or managing agent will need to agree to any work.

The most common are flats (31% of households at the 2021 Census), followed by semi-detached houses at 29%.

Usually, yes. Sheep’s wool and recycled polyester cost more than mineral wool; we can quote for both.

Yes, in the same way as for homeowners.
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.

About as well, depth for depth. People choose it because it’s pleasant to handle and copes well with damp.
