Before you order 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.

Working out quantities for your London job

An 8 × 7 m loft (56 m²) insulated from scratch to 270 mm needs about 7 rolls of 100 mm and 12 rolls of 170 mm, using typical roll coverage; coverage varies by brand. Try the insulation calculator

Delivery to London: what helps

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

  • With roughly 7h 49m of daylight in London around the shortest day, morning deliveries leave more working light for the job.
  • Keep cement, plaster and boards dry: have a tarpaulin or a garage space ready before they arrive.
  • Have someone on site for the delivery if you can, or agree a safe drop point with us in advance.

Mineral Wool Insulation in London: questions

Can you deliver mineral wool insulation to a site with restricted access in London?

Usually, yes. Tell us about the access when you ask for a price and we will plan the vehicle and offload, or say if a smaller vehicle is needed.

How soon can mineral wool insulation be delivered in London?

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 mineral wool fireproof?

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

Do I need protective gear?

Wear gloves, long sleeves and a dust mask when handling mineral wool, as it can irritate skin and eyes.
