Picking the right product

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.

Planning the drop in Ormskirk

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

  • Keep cement, plaster and boards dry: have a tarpaulin or a garage space ready before they arrive.
  • Pallets left on a pavement can block the footway, so plan a drop point inside your boundary where you can.
  • Deliveries are to the kerb, drive or within crane reach; ask if materials need to go further.

Quantities: a worked example

A 9 × 8 m loft (72 m²) insulated from scratch to 270 mm needs about 9 rolls of 100 mm and 15 rolls of 170 mm, using typical roll coverage; coverage varies by brand. Try the insulation calculator
