Picking the right product
Sealing joints
Tape the joints with foil tape so the foil layer works as a continuous vapour control layer where the design relies on it.
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.
A quick quantity check
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
Delivering PIR insulation boards in Oldham
Boards are light but bulky; they travel in wrapped packs and should be stored flat and dry. Oldham is inside our standard mainland delivery area.
- With roughly 7h 27m of daylight in Oldham around the shortest day, morning deliveries leave more working light for the job.
- For a phased build we can split the order so materials arrive as each stage starts, which keeps the site clear.
- Pallets left on a pavement can block the footway, so plan a drop point inside your boundary where you can.
PIR Insulation Boards questions
How thick should PIR insulation be?
It depends on where it goes and the U-value required. Pitched roofs often need 100 mm or more between and under rafters; floors and walls vary. Use the maker's U-value tables or ask your designer.
Can I add other materials to my Oldham delivery?
Yes. Put everything on one list, from PIR insulation boards to fixings and PPE, and we will price it as one delivery where the products can travel together.
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.
Is there a minimum order for delivery to Oldham?
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.
