Why it matters

The case for insulating your Addlestone loft

25%of a home's heat is lost through an uninsulated roof
1 in 5UK lofts are under-insulated or have the wrong material

None of this requires permissions, scaffolding or structural work. In Addlestone, as anywhere, it is a day's work with materials that cost little relative to what they save.

Addlestone's homes

Older Addlestone homes, modern standards

Addlestone's housing stock largely dates from the 1920s onwards, on much older village foundations, and the roofs above it are typically generous pitched roofs, frequently with modern trussed construction on the newer stock. Very little of it was built with any insulation at all; what is there now was added later, and its condition depends entirely on who added it and when.

Retrofitted insulation ages in predictable ways. Mineral wool settles and compresses under its own weight over decades. Anything that has been walked on, stored on or boarded over is thinner than it was. Material that has been repeatedly damp has lost most of its value. And the very oldest loose-fill products are often best removed entirely rather than topped over.

A specific local factor: modern trussed roofs have dense timber webbing that makes movement awkward, so boarding needs planning around the truss layout. We look for that on every Addlestone survey.

Five ways we keep Addlestone homes warm

Every one of these begins with the same free survey and ends with a fixed price agreed before anything starts.

A/A+ fire rated and around 40mm thick. For Addlestone properties where deepening the rafters is impractical, this is what makes the numbers work.

The standard job, done to standard: two layers, the second laid across the joists to kill the cold bridge, eaves left clear. Most Addlestone lofts are finished in half a day.

Loft boarding

Storage-ready

Boards laid straight onto joists crush 270mm into 100mm. We batten out instead, so Addlestone homeowners get usable storage and keep the insulation they paid for.

Fitted in a day

The thing that turns a loft you avoid into one you use. Grab rails and a boarded landing area where the design allows.

Loft makeovers

All-in-one

Insulation, boarding, lighting and a ladder handled together in one visit — cheaper and better sequenced than buying the four separately.

Questions & answers

Addlestone loft insulation — common questions

Do I need planning permission in Addlestone?

No. Loft insulation, boarding and loft ladders are all improvement works well outside planning control, in Addlestone as everywhere else. A loft conversion — creating a habitable room with structural alterations — is different and normally needs building control approval. We do not carry out conversions.

Will this improve my EPC rating?

Usually, and often noticeably. Loft insulation depth is recorded directly by the assessor, so increasing it from 100mm to 270mm generally moves the rating. We hand over product documentation and declared performance figures so your assessor records what is actually there.
