Choosing mineral wool insulation

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.

Keep it ventilated

When insulating a loft, keep eaves vents clear so the roof space stays ventilated.

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.

Estimating your mineral wool insulation

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

Getting mineral wool insulation onto your Pitsea site

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

  • Deliveries are to the kerb, drive or within crane reach; ask if materials need to go further.
  • Pallets left on a pavement can block the footway, so plan a drop point inside your boundary where you can.
  • Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.
