Most Wellingborough homeowners who call us about loft insulation have noticed rooms that never hold heat and high energy bills. The way we approach it depends on your property and street. Ironstone terraces near the town centre have tight frontages; the newer estates off the Niort Way are more open. That local reality — the stock era, the access, and exposed higher ground east of the nene catches wind-driven rain on west-facing slopes — is exactly what we price against, rather than a one-size national rate.
Done properly, locally. Insulation is laid with eaves ventilation kept clear, so you get warmth without causing loft damp. Workmanship is guaranteed; insulation materials carry their own manufacturer performance ratings.

We cover Sheep Street, Silver Street and the surrounding roads, and we are happy for you to get other quotes: a proper roofer expects it.
