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 delivery works in Dover

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

  • With roughly 7h 53m of daylight in Dover around the shortest day, morning deliveries leave more working light for the job.
  • For a phased build we can split the order so materials arrive as each stage starts, which keeps the site clear.
  • In summer Dover gets around 16h 34m of daylight, but early deliveries still beat the traffic and give the longest working day.

Working out quantities for your Dover job

A 7 × 5 m loft (35 m²) insulated from scratch to 270 mm needs about 5 rolls of 100 mm and 8 rolls of 170 mm, using typical roll coverage; coverage varies by brand. Try the insulation calculator

Mineral Wool Insulation questions

Do you deliver mineral wool insulation to Dover?

Yes. We deliver across Dover, including CT16, CT17, CT15. Dover is inside our standard mainland delivery area. Send your list or call 0800 088 6341 and we will price it delivered to your postcode.

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 I need protective gear?

Wear gloves, long sleeves and a dust mask when handling mineral wool, as it can irritate skin and eyes.

There is no fixed minimum. For very small orders we will tell you honestly if the delivery cost outweighs the materials, so you can decide.
