Removing Insulation and installing new Insulation

There are some situations where removing Loft Insulation is a necessity such as after water damage or contamination with bird droppings. Luckily, removing and installing new insulation is not as hard as it seems. In the case of contaminated insulation our installers wear protective chemical suits, gloves, masks and goggles to protect them from the contamination. The old insulation is bagged and sealed in the loft area, then carefully removed from your property for disposal.


Once the insulation is removed we can hoover the loft space if required before laying new insulation to your required depth.  The minimum recommended depth for loft Insulation is 270mm however we often install as much as 400mm for customers keen to save energy.


We always recommend Knauf Loft Roll 44 mineral wool Insulation, it offers great thermal insulation properties and is non-flammable. Knauf don't use chemicals in the manufacturing process and there are no VOC gasses from the insulation. Additionally, it creates less small, itchy fibres than other insolation making it easier to work and live with.


All out installers are qualified joiners or hold an NVQ level 2 in building Insulation as a minimum standard, we are fully insured and licensed and members of the National Insulation association. You can be assured your in good hands with us if you have a Insulation project that requires an installer who knows what they are doing.
