Getting mineral wool insulation onto your Shropshire site

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

  • Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.
  • If neighbours share the access, it helps to let them know a lorry is coming.
  • 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

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.

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.

Mineral Wool Insulation in Shropshire: questions

Do I need protective gear?

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

Is there a minimum order for delivery to Shropshire?

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.

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

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

Does mineral wool help with sound?

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