What it means for the lofts here
Semi-detached houses account for 57% of homes. In many, an older thin layer just needs bringing up to depth with a second layer across the joists, in mineral wool or a natural alternative.
14% of homes in Urmston are terraced. Terrace lofts are usually compact, with brick party walls either side; the insulation should meet each wall without gaps, and we check the walls themselves are complete.
With 40% of homes owned outright, plenty of lofts in Urmston were insulated a long time ago. If yours sits level with the joists, a top-up across them is usually all it needs.

What will it cost in Urmston?
It depends on the size of the loft, what’s there now, the material and how easy the loft is to work in. We quote in writing, for free.
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.
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.
