How delivery works in Sandown

Rolls are compressed and wrapped; they are light but take up space, so tell us if storage is tight. Sandown needs a ferry crossing, so deliveries are quoted individually with the crossing included.

  • 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.
  • Weight limits on bridges or private roads near the site matter for larger lorries, so mention any you know of.

Getting the right mineral wool insulation

Keep it ventilated

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

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.

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.

Quantities: a worked example

A 6 × 6 m loft (36 m²) insulated from scratch to 270 mm needs about 5 rolls of 100 mm and 8 rolls of 170 mm, using typical roll coverage; coverage varies by brand. Try the insulation calculator

Common questions from Sandown

Is mineral wool fireproof?

Most mineral wool is rated Euroclass A1 or A2, which means non-combustible or of very limited combustibility.

Can I add other materials to my Sandown delivery?

Yes. Put everything on one list, from mineral wool insulation to fixings and PPE, and we will price it as one delivery where the products can travel together.

Does mineral wool help with sound?

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

Is there a minimum order for delivery to Sandown?

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.
