Questions about loft insulation in Southwater
What are most homes in Southwater like?
The most common are detached houses (40% of households at the 2021 Census), followed by semi-detached houses at 26%.
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.
I’m in a village outside Southwater. Can I still ask?
Of course. Villages and nearby towns such as Horsham, Crawley, Cranleigh, Hassocks and Hurstpierpoint and Burgess Hill are all covered. See all the towns we list in West Sussex.
Do I need to clear the loft first?
The floor needs to be clear. If that’s a big job, tell us and we can include it.
How can I tell if mine is too thin?
If you can see the tops of the joists, it probably is.
My loft is large. Will natural insulation cost a lot more?
It costs more than mineral wool, and a bigger loft makes the difference larger. Your quote can show both so you can compare.
