Mineral Wool Insulation: choosing well
Keep it ventilated
When insulating a loft, keep eaves vents clear so the roof space stays ventilated.
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.
Getting mineral wool insulation onto your Leicester site
Rolls are compressed and wrapped; they are light but take up space, so tell us if storage is tight. Leicester is inside our standard mainland delivery area.
- Deliveries are to the kerb, drive or within crane reach; ask if materials need to go further.
- If neighbours share the access, it helps to let them know a lorry is coming.
- Give us the full postcode for the drop point; deliveries around LE1 are priced to the exact address.
Working out quantities for your Leicester job
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
