  • 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.

Sizing your order

A 10 × 8 m loft (80 m²) insulated from scratch to 270 mm needs about 10 rolls of 100 mm and 17 rolls of 170 mm, using typical roll coverage; coverage varies by brand. Try the insulation calculator

Your questions answered

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

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

Do I need protective gear?

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

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 Walkden?

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.
