Delivering mineral wool insulation in Argyll and Bute
Rolls are compressed and wrapped; they are light but take up space, so tell us if storage is tight. Across most of Argyll and Bute, deliveries are quoted individually because of the distance and access.
- Have someone on site for the delivery if you can, or agree a safe drop point with us in advance.
- Pallets left on a pavement can block the footway, so plan a drop point inside your boundary where you can.
- If neighbours share the access, it helps to let them know a lorry is coming.
Picking the right product
Keep it ventilated
When insulating a loft, keep eaves vents clear so the roof space stays ventilated.
How much for a loft?
The common recommendation is 270 mm in total: usually 100 mm between the joists and 170 mm across them. Check the depth already there.
In Scotland most building work needs a building warrant from the local authority, assessed against the Building Standards Technical Handbooks.

Can you deliver mineral wool insulation to a site with restricted access in Argyll and Bute?
Usually, yes. Tell us about the access when you ask for a price and we will plan the vehicle and offload, or say if a smaller vehicle is needed.
