Planning the drop in Gloucester

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

  • Give us the full postcode for the drop point; deliveries around GL1 are priced to the exact address.
  • Have someone on site for the delivery if you can, or agree a safe drop point with us in advance.
  • Pallets left on a pavement can block the footway, so plan a drop point inside your boundary where you can.

Mineral Wool Insulation: choosing well

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.
