The loft jobs we do in Oakham
Around two in five of homes in Oakham are detached (40%). Many newer ones have trussed roofs, which shape where boards can go.
About a quarter of homes here are semis (26%). Their lofts usually have room for a decent storage area once the insulation is up to depth.
43% of homes are owned outright. Long-settled insulation, often under years of storage, is common.
On the visit we note whether the eaves are clear, whether the old insulation is dry and clean and how deep and how far apart the joists are. That’s what decides the depth, the boarded area and the ladder.

Loft insulation in Oakham: common questions
What are most homes in Oakham?
Detached houses (40% of households, Census 2021), then semi-detached houses (26%).
Do you list prices?
No, lofts vary too much. Your written quote prices each part separately.
How do I measure mine?
Push a ruler down through it to the ceiling in a few places, standing on a joist.
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.

Yes. Melton Mowbray, Stamford, Corby, Syston and Oadby and the villages around are covered.
I rent in Oakham. Can I get my loft insulated?
