Getting the right 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 Scotland most building work needs a building warrant from the local authority, assessed against the Building Standards Technical Handbooks.

Planning the drop in Helensburgh

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

  • If the drop point is block paving or soft ground, say so; heavy pallets and bulk bags can mark or sink.
  • Deliveries are to the kerb, drive or within crane reach; ask if materials need to go further.
  • In summer Helensburgh gets around 17h 37m of daylight, but early deliveries still beat the traffic and give the longest working day.

Quantities: a worked example

A 6 × 6 m loft (36 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
