Loft Insulation

Loft Insulation

Around a quarter of the heat in your home will be lost through the roof if it is not insulated or it is inadequately insulated. Loft insulation usually comes in batts, rolls or loose in bags and some types and is very cost effective to fit. An insulated roof will lower your fuel bills as it will make your heating system more efficient.

Here at SG Insulation, we specialise in this type of insulation and we have insulated thousands of these properties over the years using fully approved specialist insulation systems.

You can insulate your loft with a variety of insulating materials. In a standard loft, the insulating materials are placed between and over the joists of the loft. If access is easy and your loft joists are regular, you can use rolls of mineral wool insulation. The first layer is laid between the joists – the horizontal beams that make up the floor of the loft – then another layer is laid at right angles to cover the joists and make the insulation up to the required depth. Loft insulation is effective for at least 40 years and it should pay for itself many times over.
