The sorts of roofing insulation readily available depend on the kind of roofing that it will be used with. With a pitched roofing, either warm or cool loft space insulation can be ideal. Cold loft insulation is the most affordable option, just involving putting insulation over as well as over wooden joists. However, as this only avoids warm escaping the living location of the home, it isn't appropriate for those looking to concealed the loft right into a home. Cozy loft insulation is placed directly under the roof covering, and also therefore will certainly keep the loft room at a constant temperature over the training course of the year.

Types of loft insulation

Blanket Insulation

The most common type of loft insulation, this comes in rolls of rock, glass or mineral fibre (we utilize Earthwool by Knauf which is a truly excellent environmentally friendly alternative), or else foil-backed felt. It's normally the cheapest option and also good all-purpose insulation, specifically for between joists. It's the easiest type to fit but isn't appropriate for the roofing system.

 

Loose-fill Insulation

This type of insulation consists of a loosened, lightweight, product, such as cork granules, cellulose fiber, mineral wool and even recycled newspaper. It can be used to cover up existing insulation or on its own. The major downside is it isn't very secure and can be actually unpleasant!

 

Sheet Insulation

Firm boards of either synthetic or natural materials, this is the most effective remedy for insulating the underside of your roof covering. The boards give very efficient insulation for your loft room and also can also be enhanced over. The drawback is that sheet insulation often tends to be one of the most costly type.

 

Blown-fibre Insulation

Loose products of numerous kinds blown in between joists, this is optimal for hard-to-get-at places but doesn't supply a full service, specifically in a draughty loft. It's also pricey as well as requires to be installed by a specialist.

FAQs

does loft insulation cause condensation?

The short and simple answer to this question is yes, loft insulation does cause condensation. Over the years, problems with condensation in loft spaces have become increasingly common. While this may not be harmful in anyway, when the condensation becomes excessive it can lead to more serious issues taking root in your loft like wet rot, dry rot as well as black spot mould. Generally, the best thing to do if you’re concerned about the condensation in your loft space and that it may rapidly become a bigger problem is to get in touch with a damp specialist as soon as possible.

 

Even though insulating your loft space comes with a wide array of benefits like making the top floor rooms warmer, it’s however comes at the cost of making your loft or room space cooler. Condensation in lofts take place primarily due to the humid air making its way through insulation or other gaps into the loft space and touching a cooler surface which in turn results in beads of moisture on the timbers, lintels as well as the underside of the roof. This is why its always a great idea make use of thermal insulation with a vapour barrier that’s installed on the warmer side of the insulating material.

 

Condensation in loft is caused by excess moisture in the air and lack of adequate air ventilation. Here are some top reasons that gives rise to this in the loft:

  • Extra insulation has been installed in the loft leading to a restriction on the natural air circulation in the property.
  • When the storage boxes or other items that has been stockpiled in the loft blocks the roof vents.
  • The release of steam and moist air into the loft space by hot water tanks.
How long does it take to install insulation?

How long it takes to install insulation will depend on the size of your property. In general, loft and cavity wall insulation can be installed in a day or two. External wall insulation will usually take longer to install. The rep or installer will be able to advise you when quoting for the job how long this will be.

Which type of insulation is best?

The best type of insulation for your property will depend on the type of walls and any insulation that’s already present. It’s usually a good idea to have some form of wall insulation as well as loft insulation, as this helps to prevent heat loss in both areas.

Will insulation save me money on my energy bills?

This depends on the amount of insulation already present in your property. However, adding insulation has been proven to improve the energy efficiency of your home and decrease your heating bills, this is more obvious in older properties or where single glazing is still in situ.
