Loft insulation in Bolsover’s homes
With 41% of homes semi-detached, a common job in Bolsover is bringing an existing layer up to depth and adding raised storage boards so the insulation isn’t squashed.
With 26% of homes terraced, many lofts in Bolsover are long and narrow, bounded by party walls on both sides. Insulation should run right up to each party wall, and we check that the wall between lofts is complete, as in some older terraces it isn’t.

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