  • If the site is up a shared drive or behind other houses, tell us the distance from the road.
  • For a phased build we can split the order so materials arrive as each stage starts, which keeps the site clear.

Things to check before you order

Keep it ventilated

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

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.
