Getting mineral wool insulation onto your Gravesend site

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

  • Pallets left on a pavement can block the footway, so plan a drop point inside your boundary where you can.
  • On busy streets in Gravesend, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.
  • In summer Gravesend gets around 16h 38m of daylight, but early deliveries still beat the traffic and give the longest working day.

Sizing your order

A 9 × 7 m loft (63 m²) insulated from scratch to 270 mm needs about 8 rolls of 100 mm and 13 rolls of 170 mm, using typical roll coverage; coverage varies by brand. Try the insulation calculator

Choosing mineral wool insulation

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.

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.

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.

Questions about mineral wool insulation delivery in Gravesend

How soon can mineral wool insulation be delivered in Gravesend?

We confirm the delivery date when we price your order, before you commit. It depends on the product, the quantity and whether it is a stock line or made to order.

Can I add other materials to my Gravesend delivery?

Yes. Put everything on one list, from mineral wool insulation to fixings and PPE, and we will price it as one delivery where the products can travel together.

Is mineral wool fireproof?

Most mineral wool is rated Euroclass A1 or A2, which means non-combustible or of very limited combustibility.

Does mineral wool help with sound?

Yes. Acoustic rolls and slabs in stud walls and floors reduce sound passing between rooms.
