What it means for the lofts here

49% of homes here are detached. Larger lofts take more material, which is worth bearing in mind if you’re weighing up sheep’s wool against mineral wool; your quote can show both.

With 19% of households in semis, a common job here is topping up insulation that was laid years ago and adding storage that doesn’t squash it.

55% of households own their home outright, so many people have been in the same house for years. Insulation laid back then was often thinner than what’s suggested today and may have settled since.

Questions about loft insulation in West Moors

What are most homes in West Moors like?

The most common are detached houses (49% of households at the 2021 Census), followed by semi-detached houses at 19%.

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

Of course. Villages and nearby towns such as Ferndown, Verwood, Wimborne Minster, Ringwood and Bournemouth are all covered. See all the towns we list in Dorset.

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.

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.

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.
