21% of households rent privately. If you’re renting, insulation is something to raise with your landlord, who looks after the building; landlords can ask us for a quote in the usual way.

I rent in Wellingborough. Can I have my loft insulated?
It’s your landlord’s decision, as they’re responsible for the building. Council and housing association tenants should contact their landlord’s repairs team. Landlords can ask us for a quote.
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.
Do you cover places near Wellingborough?
Yes, we work across England and Wales, including Burton Latimer, Rushden, Kettering, Raunds and Northampton. See all the towns we list in North Northamptonshire.
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.
