Choosing mineral wool insulation

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 Liverpool site

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

  • In summer Liverpool gets around 17h 01m of daylight, but early deliveries still beat the traffic and give the longest working day.
  • For a phased build we can split the order so materials arrive as each stage starts, which keeps the site clear.
  • If neighbours share the access, it helps to let them know a lorry is coming.
