Boost your savings, live more comfortably, help the environment, and increase your property’s attractiveness while preventing dampness, simply by insulating your loft.
Most of us already have some level of insulation in our loft space but did you know the current recommendation is for 270mm (roughly 11 inches)? Anything less than that and you could be losing heat from your property that is an easy fix to prevent.
One further thing to consider is that compressing fibre glass loft insulation dramatically reduces its efficacy. If your loft is boarded and the boards are tight to the joists then there’s a very good chance that it has been done wrong. By putting loft legs down however, we can raise the level of your floor and be sure that the insulation is 100% doing what it should be.
This is something to be really cautious of with loft insulation because if its not installed correctly then not only can it cause damp in the living areas of your property but also in the loft space itself, particularly in properties that have a water tank in the space.
We will of course make sure that any and all required ventilation is included in your package and that the installation is carried out in such a way that you can have full peace of mind that no damp will build up.
Applying for grants can seem confusing, that’s where we can help you. We work with a number of the big Energy Companies and understand the eligibility criteria and application process like the back of our hands, so contact us and we can assess your eligibility and if you qualify look to insulate your home for you.
Day 1
First, we’ll conduct a comprehensive review of your property. This involves measuring the size of your loft space and assessing the effectiveness of your current insulation to see if it meets today’s standards.
Day 1-13
After the site assessment, we’ll advise you on what actions you should take to bring the insulation of your property up to the current standards. If your loft is boarded, we may also recommend the installation of loft legs to remove any chance of insulation compression.
Day 14
Prior to our arrival, we’ll ask you to clear the loft space so that our contract team can work unhindered in the space.
Day 28
Once approved, we’ll proceed with the installation at a date that works best for you. This process usually takes 1-2 days. Once completed, you’ll be able to start reaping the benefits of your newly insulated loft, effectively trapping in heat and saving you money.

Solar panels generate most electricity during daylight hours. Any electrical appliances you use during the day, such as your TV or washing machine, will use this electricity to run. However, if the solar panels product more electricity than your appliances use, then this extra electricity goes to the electricity grid. With a battery storage system, […]
Homes built with solid walls lose a large amount of heat due to low thermal resistance i.e. cold air from the outside can penetrate the walls and high air leakage i.e. the heat you generate in your home is easily lost through the walls. This means your home is likely to be expensive to heat […]
Driven by increased energy costs, an ever-deepening cost of living crisis is upon us. Solar PV offers a number of benefits to help you…
Used extensively throughout Europe for many years already, air source heat pumps are now rapidly gaining traction in the UK as an alternate source of heating and hot water for properties. Working on an efficiency rate in the region of 300% (as opposed to around 96% from a traditional gas boiler), these systems produce heat […]
