What Billericay lofts usually need
39% of Billericay’s housing is semi-detached. In older semis the hatch is often small; we can enlarge it for a ladder.
15% of homes in Billericay are terraced. Terrace lofts are small, so full-depth insulation is quick; a strip of raised boarding by the hatch is often all the storage there’s room for.
44% of homes are owned outright. Long-settled insulation, often under years of storage, is common.
Before quoting, we measure how the cables run, the size of the hatch and where a ladder would land and how deep and how far apart the joists are. Then every part goes in the quote with its own price.

Do you work near Billericay?
How deep should loft insulation be?
About 270 mm is commonly recommended for mineral wool.
My loft was done years ago. Is it enough?
Measure it. If it’s level with the joists or less, a top-up across them is worth it.
My loft boards are nailed to the joists. Is that a problem?
Usually the insulation underneath is squashed thin. We can lift the boards, insulate and put them back on legs.
