 The Loft Boarding & Insulation Problem!

Loft Insulation & Boarding

The Old Method

Years ago when you needed additional storage space, loft boards were fitted over ceiling joist without a problem. Insulation sat beneath retaining some of your homes heat, so you were good to go!

New regulations

The recommended levels of insulation now far exceeds the height of standard joist, hence laying loft boarding directly over the joist squashes the insulation.

Squashing the insulation

Squashing or compressing the insulation has been found to decrease its efficiency by 50% causing damp and condensation in the roof space.

The Solution

The solution is raising the loft boards above the insulation height. This can be done in a number of ways using timber & metal frames, plastic legs screwed to the joist or PIR boards.

What Our Customers Say...

Mr Ducker

Bath

"There are few occasions when a service is exemplary from start to finish, but my recent experience with The Home Insulation Company was certainly one of them. From the moment Ben first visited, his integrity and honesty shone through, which was supported by an extremely reasonable quote for the work. What was particularly appreciated was the time he spent explaining exactly what was needed and how he would go about it. Completion of the work ran equally smoothly despite some complications due to my planned holiday. And the results, I could not be more delighted. Although winter has yet to kick in, there has been no need to fire up the boiler! I thoroughly recommend Ben and The Home Insulation Company to anyone considering insulating their homes."

Martin Bird

Thornbury

Ben took on our awkward attic insulation job in summer 2024. He was the only company to quote a pragmatic, cost effective approach. The approach was only possible given Ben's expertise and preparedness to take on tricky working conditions. Others wanted to remove and relay the house roof at 4 times the cost. The mix of board, lose and foil insulation is working really well , with rooms adjoining the attic, already warmer and less musty than last autumn.

Kate Sanderson

Portishead

Could not fault Ben's work ethic and professionalism, offering personalised advice with a natural aptitude. His knowledge of materials and most effective methods of fitting the loft insulation to meet the recommended guidelines was incredible.

With a more than a competitive price and solutions offered to meet my budget, I was very pleased to be guided on the material efficiencies to achieve the best thermal performance possible within my budget.

Carrying out the work to an exceptional standard, with minimal inconvenience or impact to myself whilst completing the work at a time that fitted my schedule was impressive. The whole process was quick and easy from quote to installation.

I would not hesitate to recommend him and his company to anyone needing home insulation or the related services he offers.

Cherry Hollingworth

Bath

This is a very efficient company. I found through a government website on insulation and the gentleman who replied was very quick and efficient coming soon to look at my loft insulation as it was.

He was very helpful with material types and discussed all aspects, including allowing for some special enclosed insulation so that some storage was retained around the loft entrance . He is very knowledgeable. I was amazed how quickly he fixed up a date. He is a very warm, friendly and efficient gentleman.

On the day it was all so easy, all arrangements for delivery of the insulation went smoothly, as did the installation. It was very hard for him to gain access through a small hatch, with dim light and no ladder, with a large loft cover with insulation. I had thought there would be a lot of mess but there was not. So the whole experience was completely painless. He was so knowledgeable and answered lots of questions, being forth coming with helpful advice and suggestions. I would very much recommend this firm!

The Martins

Clevedon, North Somerset

Following our initial enquiry, Ben did a detailed survey of our existing and very patchy roof insulation. He then discussed with us what needed to be done to bring it up to modern standards and provided us with a quotation for the work. Following acceptance, he came the following week and completed the work in three days. I was able to inspect the completed work in reasonably accessible areas and Ben took photos and videos of areas where access was difficult. In all areas, the work had been done meticulously. We found Ben to be a completely reliable and considerate worker and we have no hesitation in recommending him to others. The Martins, Clevedon.

Sal Andrews

Bath

Ben recently installed loft insulation in my bungalow. I cannot fault his service! Clear communication throughout, from suggestions on what insulation would work best for me (and my budget), explanations (to my numerous questions…I’m an inquisitive sort!) on how insulation works, as well as working dates and times. The work itself was well thought out and executed and thought was also given to accommodating working space for any future trades that may need loft access. In my case, solar panel engineers.

Ben was professional, friendly and an all round good guy.

Recommend without hesitation.
