Getting mineral wool insulation onto your Musselburgh site

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

  • Mention any overhead cables, low branches or narrow gateways, because they decide whether a crane offload is possible.
  • If neighbours share the access, it helps to let them know a lorry is coming.
  • For a phased build we can split the order so materials arrive as each stage starts, which keeps the site clear.

Sizing your order

A 6 × 8 m loft (48 m²) insulated from scratch to 270 mm needs about 6 rolls of 100 mm and 10 rolls of 170 mm, using typical roll coverage; coverage varies by brand. Try the insulation calculator

Things to check before you order

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