All about loft insulation
What is loft insulation?
Loft insulation is one of the most simple and effective ways you can improve your home's energy efficiency and lower your energy bills. Loft insulation can last up to 42 years.
Loft insulation is usually glass fibre or renewable wood fibre material that creates a barrier in your roof space to prevent heat from escaping.
Insulation can either be laid between the joists of your loft floor or between the rafters that support the roof. The latter is typically more expensive, and your choice will depend on whether you'd like to keep your loft space warm as well as your living space below.
Why get loft insulation professionally installed?
TrustMark accreditation: look for an accredited installer; TrustMark is the Government Endorsed Quality Scheme covering work carried out in or around your home
Less risk: experienced professionals are used to missing floorboards and ensure they stay on the joists to avoid damage to the ceiling below
Less cost – it's safer: professionals have the right equipment to protect against fibreglass from loft insulation penetrating skin or being inhaled
Why is loft insulation a good idea?
Loft insulation is effective for at least 40 years and it should pay for itself many times over by preventing heat escaping and cold air from coming in.
