Loft insulation in Heckmondwike’s homes
Semis make up 43% of homes here. In many, the loft is used for storage and the insulation has been pushed aside or flattened over the years, so even an insulated loft can be worth a second look.
Terraced houses make up 25% of homes here. Their lofts tend to be smaller and are often reached through a narrow hatch on the landing, so access is one of the first things we look at. The insulation needs to meet the party walls on each side with no gaps.
20% of households in Heckmondwike rent privately. If you’re a tenant, speak to your landlord: they arrange and pay for improvements to the building. Privately rented homes in England and Wales generally need an energy performance rating of at least E to be let.

How much does loft insulation cost in Heckmondwike?
It depends on the size of the loft, how much insulation is there now, whether old material needs removing and how easy the loft is to work in. We give you a written quotation after finding out about your home.
I rent my home in Heckmondwike. 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.
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.
