Getting mineral wool insulation onto your Paisley site

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

  • Weight limits on bridges or private roads near the site matter for larger lorries, so mention any you know of.
  • Have someone on site for the delivery if you can, or agree a safe drop point with us in advance.
  • Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.

Quantities: a worked example

A 6 × 7 m loft (42 m²) insulated from scratch to 270 mm needs about 6 rolls of 100 mm and 9 rolls of 170 mm, using typical roll coverage; coverage varies by brand. Try the insulation calculator

Mineral Wool Insulation: choosing well

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

Ordering mineral wool insulation for Paisley: FAQs

How many rolls do I need for my loft?

Divide the loft floor area by the coverage printed on the roll, for each layer. Coverage varies by brand and thickness; a 100 mm roll typically covers around 8 m² and a 170 mm roll around 5 m².

Do you deliver mineral wool insulation to trades and homeowners in Paisley?

Both. Trades can apply for a trade account; homeowners and self-builders can order on a delivered quote.

Do I need protective gear?

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

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

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.
