Delivery to Barrhead: what helps

Rolls are compressed and wrapped; they are light but take up space, so tell us if storage is tight. Barrhead is inside our standard mainland delivery area.

  • If the site is up a shared drive or behind other houses, tell us the distance from the road.
  • In summer Barrhead gets around 17h 34m of daylight, but early deliveries still beat the traffic and give the longest working day.
  • Weight limits on bridges or private roads near the site matter for larger lorries, so mention any you know of.

Before you order mineral wool insulation

Keep it ventilated

When insulating a loft, keep eaves vents clear so the roof space stays ventilated.

Glass or stone wool?

Glass wool rolls are light and economical for lofts. Stone wool slabs are denser and often chosen for acoustics and fire stopping.

In Scotland most building work needs a building warrant from the local authority, assessed against the Building Standards Technical Handbooks.

How much will you need?

A 9 × 5 m loft (45 m²) insulated from scratch to 270 mm needs about 6 rolls of 100 mm and 10 rolls of 170 mm, using typical roll coverage; coverage varies by brand. Try the insulation calculator
