What that means for your loft

24% of households in Basingstoke live in a semi-detached house. A typical semi has a loft big enough for storage, a hatch on the landing and one party wall to insulate up to; we check all three.

33% of households in Basingstoke live in a terraced house. Terrace lofts are usually compact, which keeps the amount of material down, but the work is in getting good coverage up to the party walls and into the eaves without blocking ventilation.

Loft insulation in Basingstoke: questions

How common are terraced houses in Basingstoke?

Very: 33% of households lived in terraced houses at the 2021 Census, the largest group, ahead of semi-detached houses at 24%.

Do I need to empty my loft first?

Usually the floor of the loft needs to be clear so the whole area can be insulated. We will tell you what we need when you book.

I rent my home in Basingstoke. Can I get loft insulation?

Talk to your landlord first, as changes to the building are their decision and normally their cost. Council and housing association tenants should contact their landlord’s repairs or maintenance team. Landlords can ask us for a quote just as homeowners do.

I live just outside Basingstoke. Can I still enquire?

Of course. Coverage isn’t limited to the town: enquiries come from right across England and Wales, including Tadley, Alton, Thatcham, Fleet and Yateley. See every town we list in Hampshire.

Can you give me a price for Basingstoke?

Yes, once we know about your loft. Size, existing insulation, access and any boarding or removal all affect it, and it’s confirmed in writing before you agree to anything.

Will I lose my loft storage?

Not necessarily. Raised boarding sits on supports above the insulation, so the insulation keeps its full depth and you keep somewhere to store things.
