Getting mineral wool insulation onto your Carlisle site

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

• In summer Carlisle gets around 17h 21m of daylight, but early deliveries still beat the traffic and give the longest working day.
• Pallets left on a pavement can block the footway, so plan a drop point inside your boundary where you can.
• On busy streets in Carlisle, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.

Things to check before you order

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.

Keep it ventilated

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

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.

How much will you need?

An 8 × 7 m loft (56 m²) insulated from scratch to 270 mm needs about 7 rolls of 100 mm and 12 rolls of 170 mm, using typical roll coverage; coverage varies by brand. Try the insulation calculator
