Common loft jobs in Taverham and Drayton

Detached homes (61% in Taverham and Drayton) usually have the largest lofts, so the area to cover and the amount of material are greater. More space also means more room for boarded storage above the insulation.

Many semis have lofts that have been part-boarded over the years, often straight onto the joists. Where that has flattened the insulation underneath, raised boarding lets you keep the storage and restore the insulation; 21% of homes in Taverham and Drayton are semi-detached.

43% of households own their home outright. If your loft was last insulated many years ago, it may well be below the depth recommended today, as older layers were thinner and settle over time.

I rent my home in Taverham and Drayton. Can I get loft insulation?

Talk to your landlord first, as changes to the building are their decision and normally their cost. Landlords can ask us for a quote just as homeowners do.

My loft was insulated years ago. Is that enough?

Possibly not. Older insulation was often laid thinner than the depth recommended today, and mineral wool settles over time. If it sits level with the top of the joists or below, a top-up is worth considering.
