Picking the right product

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.

Quantities: a worked example

A 7 × 5 m loft (35 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

Getting mineral wool insulation onto your Swindon site

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

  • Keep cement, plaster and boards dry: have a tarpaulin or a garage space ready before they arrive.
  • With roughly 7h 49m of daylight in Swindon around the shortest day, morning deliveries leave more working light for the job.
  • Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.
