Questions about loft insulation in Southwark

Are most homes in Southwark flats?

78% of households lived in a flat or maisonette at the 2021 Census, and 22% in a house or bungalow.

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.

How can I tell if mine is too thin?

If you can see the tops of the joists, it probably is.

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.

Do you quote for landlords in Southwark?

Yes, in the same way as for homeowners.

I’m in a village outside Southwark. Can I still ask?

Of course. Villages and nearby towns such as Lambeth, Lewisham, Tower Hamlets, Westminster and Wandsworth are all covered.
