Common questions

Whilst no two roof spaces, lofts or attics are ever completely the same, there are a  few common questions that we get asked a lot.

Loft insulation is a type of insulation that is installed in the space between the ceiling joists in a loft or attic. It helps to keep heat inside a building, reducing the amount of heat that is lost through the roof.

  • Reduces heat loss in the winter, keeping your home warmer and reducing your heating bills.
  • Keeps your home cooler in the summer by reducing heat gain.
  • Can help to reduce condensation and mould growth in the loft.
  • Can improve the overall energy efficiency of your home.

Loft boarding is the process of installing a floor in the loft or attic to create a usable space. It can be used to create storage space, or as a platform for installing insulation.

  • Creates additional storage space in the home.
  • Makes it easier to access the loft for maintenance and repairs.
  • Provides a solid surface for installing insulation.
  • Increases the overall value of your home.

The most common types of insulation used in lofts are fiberglass, cellulose, and mineral wool. They are all effective at insulating a loft and the best choice will depend on the specific requirements of your property and your personal preferences.

You can check the level of insulation in your loft by looking at the depth of the insulation. The recommended depth for loft insulation is at least 270mm (11 inches). If the insulation is less than this, it may be worth adding more.

The cost of insulating a loft will depend on the size of the loft, the type of insulation used and whether or not the loft needs to be boarded. Contact Pro-Insulate to organise a no obligation quote.

The time it takes to insulate a loft will depend on the size of the loft and the type of insulation used. Insulating an average-sized loft will take one day.
