What that means for your loft
With 38% of homes semi-detached, a common job in Coalville is bringing an existing layer up to depth and adding raised storage boards so the insulation isn’t squashed.
Rows of terraced homes account for 23% of the housing in Coalville. In a terrace, heat can be lost through a thin or patchy layer just as easily as through an empty loft, so we look at how even the existing insulation is as well as how deep.

Loft insulation in Coalville: questions
How common are semi-detached houses in Coalville?
Very: 38% of households lived in semi-detached houses at the 2021 Census, the largest group, ahead of detached houses at 31%.
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.
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.
How long does the work take?
A typical loft is usually done within a day once booked. Removing old insulation first, fitting boarding or awkward access can add time; we will tell you when we quote.
I rent my home in Coalville. 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.
Do you cover the villages around Coalville?
Yes. We take enquiries from anywhere in England and Wales, so villages and smaller places around Coalville are covered too, as are nearby towns such as Whitwick, Shepshed, Ashby-de-la-Zouch, Loughborough and Swadlincote. See every town we list in Leicestershire.
