I’m in a village outside Westhoughton. Can I still ask?
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.
Can I keep my loft storage?
Yes. A floor raised on legs above the insulation keeps the storage without squashing the insulation.
Is natural insulation more expensive?
Usually, yes. Sheep’s wool and recycled polyester cost more than mineral wool; we can quote for both.
