Is Loft Insulation Important?

If your property has an attic then it’s essential that you get some sort of loft insulation installed. With heating bills on the rise, keeping your home warm through the colder months is more expensive than ever. So making sure your home is as energy efficient as possible can help save you money by preventing wasted heat.

Furthermore, good insulation can increase the value of your home by improving your property’s energy rating. And, providing the insulation is installed correctly, it can come with health benefits too. Because homes suffering from poor insulation will lead to condensation and damp issues and cause respiratory issues.

In addition, loft insulation can reduce wear and tear on your boiler as it won’t put out more heat than necessary. So, all in all, getting your loft sorted by one of our seasoned lost insulation fitters will help secure the heat in your property for years to come.

Types of Loft Insulation

There are lots of different types of insulation that are often used when insulating attic spaces. Each option varies in terms of ease of use, efficiency and cost. Let’s have a closer look at the differences in lost insulation choices.

Blanket Insulation

Blanket insulation is generally the most cost-effective and common option when insulating your attic. Usually made from rock, glass or mineral fibre, blanket insulation is a great multi-purpose solution that comes in blanket roles. The blankets will fit neatly between joists and they’re easy to lay and trim.

Sheet Insulation

Sheet insulation comes in the form of firm boards that can be cut to size to fit the rafters and joist in your attic. This is the best choice for insulating the underside of your roof as the boards are protected against damp and mould issues. This is the most expensive lost insulation option, but it is very effective.

Blown Fibre Insulation

Blown fibre insulation consists of various types of materials that can be blown in between or above the floor joists in your attic. It’s an efficient method for hitting hard-to-reach places or irregular-shaped areas. And, it’s a great solution for insulating cavity walls in old buildings and renovation work.

Loose-Fill Insulation

Loose-fill insulation is another option for filling between joists and difficult-to-reach places. It’s great for topping up existing insulation or for use on its own. Although, this type of insulation can be quite messy as it’s not particularly secure.
