Things to check before you order

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 × 5 m loft (40 m²) insulated from scratch to 270 mm needs about 5 rolls of 100 mm and 9 rolls of 170 mm, using typical roll coverage; coverage varies by brand. Try the insulation calculator

Mineral Wool Insulation questions

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

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

Is there a minimum order for delivery to Strood?

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.

How thick should loft insulation be?

270 mm in total is the common recommendation, usually as 100 mm between the joists and 170 mm across them.

Does mineral wool help with sound?

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