How to get a quote

We take enquiries from across Stoke-on-Trent and the surrounding area, including Newcastle-under-Lyme, Stone, Cheadle, Kidsgrove and Biddulph.

Loft insulation in Stoke-on-Trent: questions

Can landlords in Stoke-on-Trent get quotes?

Will I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the loft hatch. We agree the details with you when you book.

My loft is boarded. Can it still be insulated?

Often, yes. Boards screwed straight onto the joists usually squash the insulation below. A common fix is to lift them, bring the insulation up to depth and fit raised boarding so you keep the storage space.

What if there’s damp or mould in my loft?

Mention it when you enquire. Damp or mouldy insulation normally needs removing, and the cause (a leak or poor ventilation, for example) dealing with, before new insulation goes in.
