• Mention any overhead cables, low branches or narrow gateways, because they decide whether a crane offload is possible.
• In summer Kelso gets around 17h 31m of daylight, but early deliveries still beat the traffic and give the longest working day.

Your questions answered

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 soon can mineral wool insulation be delivered in Kelso?

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.

Is there a minimum order for delivery to Kelso?

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.

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.
