Getting the right mineral wool insulation

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.

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 England, building work is checked against the Approved Documents, for example Part A for structure and Part L for energy efficiency, through your council's building control team or a registered building control approver.

Your questions answered

Can you deliver mineral wool insulation to a site with restricted access in Bishop Auckland?

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.

Is mineral wool fireproof?

Most mineral wool is rated Euroclass A1 or A2, which means non-combustible or of very limited combustibility.

How many rolls do I need for my loft?

Divide the loft floor area by the coverage printed on the roll, for each layer. Coverage varies by brand and thickness; a 100 mm roll typically covers around 8 m² and a 170 mm roll around 5 m².

Do you deliver mineral wool insulation to trades and homeowners in Bishop Auckland?

Both. Trades can apply for a trade account; homeowners and self-builders can order on a delivered quote.
