Things to check before you order

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.

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.

Sizing your order

A 10 × 5 m loft (50 m²) insulated from scratch to 270 mm needs about 7 rolls of 100 mm and 11 rolls of 170 mm, using typical roll coverage; coverage varies by brand. Try the insulation calculator

How delivery works in Gateshead

Rolls are compressed and wrapped; they are light but take up space, so tell us if storage is tight. Gateshead 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.
• Keep cement, plaster and boards dry: have a tarpaulin or a garage space ready before they arrive.
• If neighbours share the access, it helps to let them know a lorry is coming.

Mineral Wool Insulation in Gateshead: questions

Do I need protective gear?

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

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.

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

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.

How soon can mineral wool insulation be delivered in Gateshead?
