Getting the right 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.

Working out quantities for your Nelson job

A 10 × 6 m loft (60 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

Planning the drop in Nelson

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

• If the site is up a shared drive or behind other houses, tell us the distance from the road.
• Mention any overhead cables, low branches or narrow gateways, because they decide whether a crane offload is possible.
• With roughly 7h 24m of daylight in Nelson around the shortest day, morning deliveries leave more working light for the job.
