How delivery works in Braintree

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

• On busy streets in Braintree, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.
• Weight limits on bridges or private roads near the site matter for larger lorries, so mention any you know of.
• In summer Braintree gets around 16h 43m of daylight, but early deliveries still beat the traffic and give the longest working day.

Picking the right product

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.

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 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

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.
