Order PIR insulation boards for delivery in Rushden

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.

Trades and homeowners in Rushden can order PIR insulation boards for delivery by sending a list, a drawing or just the sizes of the job.

Planning the drop in Rushden

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

  • Pallets left on a pavement can block the footway, so plan a drop point inside your boundary where you can.
  • Give us the full postcode for the drop point; deliveries around NN10 are priced to the exact address.
  • Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.

Things to check before you order

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.

Your questions answered

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

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

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.

Can you deliver PIR insulation boards to a site with restricted access in Rushden?

Usually, yes. Tell us about the access when you ask for a price and we will plan the vehicle and offload, or say if a smaller vehicle is needed.

Is PIR better than mineral wool?

PIR insulates more per millimetre, so it suits tight spaces. Mineral wool is non-combustible, cheaper per square metre and better for sound.
