SuperQuilt multifoil insulation
A/A+ fire ratedWhere a Ashtead loft has already been converted, insulation has to follow the rafters rather than the floor. SuperQuilt does that in 40mm instead of the 200mm-plus a wool build-up would need.

Loft insulation in Ashtead
Ashtead sits in Surrey, where the housing is dominated by interwar and post-war detached and semi-detached homes, older village cores and a good deal of recent development. Much of it was insulated to a standard that has since been superseded twice over. We put that right — properly, in a day, for a price agreed in advance.

For a Ashtead homeowner the practical upshot is simple — the loft is the first upgrade worth making and the one most likely to have been done to an outdated standard.
Ashtead's homes
The character of Ashtead roofs
Ashtead is a good illustration of how Surrey was built. The stock here runs to interwar and post-war detached and semi-detached homes, older village cores and a good deal of recent development, and the roofs are predominantly generous pitched roofs, frequently with modern trussed construction on the newer stock. Within a single street you can find a loft you can stand up and walk around in, and one three doors along where the only sensible approach is to work on your knees.
That variation is exactly why we survey before quoting. Two lofts of identical floor area can differ by a substantial margin in price because one has 150mm joists and a wide hatch, and the other has shallow, irregular timbers, a 400mm opening and a cold water tank sitting in the middle of the run.
Locally, modern trussed roofs have dense timber webbing that makes movement awkward, so boarding needs planning around the truss layout — worth knowing before you compare quotes.

Five ways we keep Ashtead homes warm
Every one of these begins with the same free survey and ends with a fixed price agreed before anything starts.
Loft insulation installation
270mm depthMineral wool cross-laid to the 270mm depth current regulations recommend. For most Ashtead homes this is the single highest-value thing you can do to the building.
Loft boarding
Storage-readyA squared, edged deck reached from the hatch, with the eaves left open so the roof keeps breathing. Sized to what you will actually use rather than the whole Ashtead footprint.
Loft ladders
Fitted in a dayFitted in a day, finished to match your landing, with the hatch insulated and draught-sealed as part of the same job.
Loft makeovers
All-in-oneOne team, one survey, one sequence of work. The insulation depth sets the batten height, the batten height sets the ladder landing — which is why doing it piecemeal costs more.

Questions & answers
Ashtead loft insulation — common questions
Will insulating my loft cause damp?
Correctly installed, no. The risk comes from packing material hard into the eaves and sealing off the airflow the roof depends on. We stop the insulation short and use eaves trays where the pitch requires them.
How much does loft insulation cost in Ashtead?
There is no single figure, and anyone offering one for Ashtead without seeing the loft is guessing. The largest swing factor is almost always whether the existing material can be topped over or has to be stripped out and disposed of. We survey free of charge and quote a fixed price afterwards.
