SuperQuilt multifoil insulation
A/A+ fire ratedWhere a Dagenham 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 Dagenham
Cold upstairs rooms and a heating bill that keeps climbing usually have the same cause, and in Dagenham it is very often the roof. We survey the loft free of charge, measure what is genuinely up there, and quote a fixed price to bring it up to standard.

Put against current energy prices, a Dagenham loft still carrying 100mm of settled wool is costing its owner money every single winter it stays that way.
Dagenham's homes
Why Dagenham lofts need attention
Dagenham forms part of East London, an area whose housing is characterised by Victorian terraces, interwar council-built estates, post-war rebuilding and a great deal of recent conversion and new build. The bulk of it went up during the 1870s onwards, with heavy rebuilding after 1945, decades before insulation was a design consideration at all, and what sits above the ceilings today is usually a retrofit added at some point in the last fifty years to whatever standard was current at the time.
That matters because the standard has moved repeatedly. Lofts insulated in the 1980s typically received 100mm; earlier work was often 50mm or nothing. Current guidance is 270mm. A great many Dagenham houses therefore contain insulation that was entirely adequate when it was fitted and is now doing roughly a third of the work it should be — while the homeowner reasonably assumes the loft is 'done'.
Wartime damage and post-war rebuilding mean two adjoining houses on the same street can have entirely different roof construction. It is the sort of thing a survey establishes in ten minutes and a phone quote never can.

Questions & answers
Dagenham loft insulation — common questions
Can I still use my Dagenham loft for storage afterwards?
You can, and most Dagenham customers do — but the deck has to sit above the insulation, not on it. That is the whole reason raised boarding exists. Tell us at survey stage if storage matters to you, because it changes how the insulation is planned.
Do you work in the streets around Dagenham?
We do. Coverage extends across Dagenham and the neighbouring areas, and we are happy to confirm your specific postcode over the phone before booking anything.
