The sorts of roof covering insulation offered depend upon the kind of roofing system that it will be utilized with. With a pitched roof covering, either warm or chilly loft space insulation can be ideal. Cold loft space insulation is the least expensive option, merely including positioning insulation over as well as over wooden joists. However, as this only prevents heat leaving the living area of the house, it isn't suitable for those aiming to hidden the loft space right into a living area. Cozy loft insulation is put directly under the roofing system, and hence will certainly maintain the loft room at a continuous temperature over the training course of the year. Because of this, it is perfect if the loft space is utilized as a home. Warm loft space insulation can be found in various forms, be it glass-wool or polystyrene. Spray foams can also be used, but in many cases may be inappropriate.

 

Kinds of loft space insulation

It's generally the cheapest alternative as well as great all-purpose insulation, especially for in between joists. It's the most convenient kind to fit but isn't suitable for the roof.

 

Loose-fill Insulation

This sort of insulation contains a loose, light-weight, product, such as cork granules, cellulose fibre, mineral woollen and even recycled paper. It can be made use of to top up existing insulation or on its own. The main drawback is it isn't very safe and secure and can be really untidy!

 

Sheet Insulation

Company boards of either artificial or natural products, this is the very best option for shielding the underside of your roof covering. The boards give extremely effective insulation for your loft space and can likewise be embellished over. The disadvantage is that sheet insulation has a tendency to be one of the most costly type.

FAQs

how much is loft insulation?

More often than not, several homeowners fail to realize there’s so much value sitting right under their roof - the loft. When a loft is insulated, there are so many juicy benefits that can be derived. It can go a long way to save increase you energy savings and several more functions. Therefore, if you really wish to maximize the space under your home’s roof, you’d have to considering insulating it. So how much would it cost to have your loft insulated? Here, you’ll discover the cost of insulating your lofts so you that you can set a budget and start to plan.

 

The cost of insulating a loft is actually affordable for several individuals, however, this depends on a wide range of factors such as the size of the house as well as the type of insulation being installed. One significant factor is the insulating material that you choose to install. If done properly, you’d be able to prevent heat from escaping through the roof of the house which helps improve energy efficiency and ultimately, save you some money on heating bills.

 

If you’d prefer to make it a DIY project and you go for a blanket insulation it costs about £5 per m2. therefore, this will cost within the range of £100 to about £150 for a small home.

 

For a professional service, you’ll be provided with a quote for both the materials and labour. The amount will be based on the number of insulation required, the company hired, your location as well as the method selected. The price to purchase and install blanket insulation  would be between the range of £300 to £400 depending on the size of your home.

how much loft insulation do I need?

Over the years, more and more home and property owners are beginning to realize the huge benefits that can be derived from loft insulation being a worthwhile investment. It’s quite worrisome the way in which energy bills have soared over the past 10 years and loft insulation is a considerable affordable energy efficiency measure that can go a long way to help increase your home’s energy savings.

 

As far back as the 1980’s, the standard when it comes to insulation thickness was 25 mm to 50 mm which was, at the time, considered to be sufficient. However, building regulations have changed the norm that now states that a new build needs to possess 270 mm of insulation in the loft in order to achieve the required u-value of less than 0.16/m2k based on the standard rock wool or sheep wool insulation.

 

Generally with loft insulation, there’s a law of depreciating returns which implies that the first couple of insulation centimetres will save you many times the cost of the installation, however an extra layer or centimetre is going to add less value to the point where it’ll no longer be wise or worthwhile to add any further centimetre. Therefore, with cheaper energy prices 30 years back, that additional couple of centimetres was not just worthwhile, but with the recent alarming rises in costs of fuel, that additional £10 savings per year has all of sudden changed to £30 which makes it become a lot more attractive.

 

If you already have 270 mm of loft insulation, regardless of the material you’re looking to add you’re most likely not going to benefit from a top up. The cost of the materials and installation will definitely be too high for the couple of pounds it’ll save you per year.

How long does it take to install insulation?

How long it takes to install insulation will depend on the size of your property. In general, loft and cavity wall insulation can be installed in a day or two. External wall insulation will usually take longer to install. The rep or installer will be able to advise you when quoting for the job how long this will be.

Which type of insulation is best?

The best type of insulation for your property will depend on the type of walls and any insulation that’s already present. It’s usually a good idea to have some form of wall insulation as well as loft insulation, as this helps to prevent heat loss in both areas.
