Questions about loft insulation in Royal Sutton Coldfield
How many homes in Royal Sutton Coldfield are houses?
80% of households live in a house or bungalow and 20% in a flat or maisonette, according to the 2021 Census.
How deep should my loft insulation be?
Around 270 mm is the depth commonly recommended for mineral wool. We’ll suggest a depth for your loft in the quote.
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.
Do you cover places near Royal Sutton Coldfield?
Yes, we work across England and Wales, including Streetly, Aldridge, Rushall and Shelfield, Walsall and Birmingham. See all the towns we list in Birmingham.
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.
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.
