Questions about loft insulation in Swinton
How many homes in Swinton are houses?
88% of households live in a house or bungalow and 12% in a flat or maisonette, according to the 2021 Census.
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.
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.
