Common loft jobs in Stevenage
Terraced houses make up 45% 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 Stevenage 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.

Loft insulation in Stevenage: questions
Are most homes in Stevenage houses or flats?
Houses: 77% of households live in a detached, semi-detached or terraced house or bungalow, and 23% in a flat or maisonette (Census 2021). The most common single type is terraced houses, at 45%.
How deep should loft insulation be?
For mineral wool, 270mm is the depth commonly recommended in UK lofts. Other materials reach a similar level at different thicknesses.
Do you work in Stevenage?
Yes. We work across England and Wales, including Stevenage and the area around it. Send your postcode and we’ll be in touch.
I rent my home in Stevenage. 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.
I live just outside Stevenage. Can I still enquire?
Of course. Coverage isn’t limited to the town: enquiries come from right across England and Wales, including Hitchin, Letchworth, Baldock, Welwyn Garden City and Stotfold. See every town we list in Hertfordshire.
