Getting the right 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.

Sizing your order

An 8 × 6 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

Getting mineral wool insulation onto your Portishead site

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

• Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.
• Keep cement, plaster and boards dry: have a tarpaulin or a garage space ready before they arrive.
• Mention any overhead cables, low branches or narrow gateways, because they decide whether a crane offload is possible.

Your questions answered

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

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.

Is there a minimum order for delivery to Portishead?

There is no fixed minimum. For very small orders we will tell you honestly if the delivery cost outweighs the materials, so you can decide.

Does mineral wool help with sound?

Yes. Acoustic rolls and slabs in stud walls and floors reduce sound passing between rooms.

Do I need protective gear?

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