Order PIR insulation boards for delivery in Oakham

PIR (polyisocyanurate) insulation boards are rigid foam boards with foil facings that give a lot of insulation for their thickness, used in floors, walls, pitched and flat roofs.

We deliver PIR insulation boards to sites, driveways and yards across Oakham, from a single pallet for a small job to full loads for bigger builds.

Picking the right product

Fire considerations

PIR is a combustible product. Building regulations restrict combustible materials in some situations, such as external walls of taller buildings; check what applies.

Thickness for the U-value

The thickness you need depends on the U-value the building regulations require and the rest of the build-up. Manufacturers publish U-value tables; your designer or building control will confirm.

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.

Delivering PIR insulation boards in Oakham

Boards are light but bulky; they travel in wrapped packs and should be stored flat and dry. Oakham is inside our standard mainland delivery area.

  • If the site is up a shared drive or behind other houses, tell us the distance from the road.
  • Deliveries are to the kerb, drive or within crane reach; ask if materials need to go further.
  • Pallets left on a pavement can block the footway, so plan a drop point inside your boundary where you can.

Quantities: a worked example

Insulating 45 m² of rafters, floor or wall takes 17 boards of 2400 × 1200 mm including offcuts. The thickness depends on the U-value you need, so check it before you order. Try the insulation calculator

Ordering PIR insulation boards for Oakham: FAQs

How many PIR boards do I need?

Divide the area by 2.88 m² (one 2400 × 1200 board) and add about 5 to 10 percent for cutting.

Do you deliver PIR insulation boards to trades and homeowners in Oakham?

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

How soon can PIR insulation boards be delivered in Oakham?

We confirm the delivery date when we price your order, before you commit. It depends on the product, the quantity and whether it is a stock line or made to order.

What is the foil for?

The foil facing reflects heat, protects the foam and, when joints are taped, can act as a vapour control layer.
