SuperQuilt multifoil insulation
A/A+ fire ratedMultifoil earns its place in Tulse Hill roofs where depth is the binding constraint — period timbers, low headroom, or a conversion already boarded out.

Loft insulation in Tulse Hill
We insulate lofts across Tulse Hill — topping up thin or ageing material to the depth current building regulations recommend, boarding the space so it earns its keep, and fitting proper access so you can actually get to it. Every job starts with a free survey, and every price is fixed before work begins.

Why it matters
The case for insulating your Tulse Hill 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
270mmthe depth current building regulations recommend
90%less radiant heat loss with SuperQuilt multifoil
Those figures are national, but the logic is entirely local: the roof over a Tulse Hill house is the cheapest part of it to improve, and the part losing the most.
Tulse Hill's homes
Tulse Hill: what a survey usually turns up
Housing across Tulse Hill and the surrounding South London area is largely dense Victorian terraces and villas, interwar semis and a substantial amount of purpose-built and converted flats, built through the 1860s through the 1930s. When we open a hatch here, the most common finding is not an absence of insulation but an insufficiency of it — a layer that was correct when fitted and has since been overtaken by both the guidance and the price of energy.
The second most common finding is a ventilation problem. Insulating a loft floor makes the roof space colder, and a colder roof space condenses more readily. Where a previous installer packed material tight into the eaves, the roof has lost the airflow it depends on and the homeowner has a damp loft they blame on the insulation rather than on the installation.
Add to that the local factor — subdivision into flats is very common, so ownership of the roof space is worth establishing before work is booked — and you have most of what a Tulse Hill survey is checking for.

Five ways we keep Tulse Hill 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 Tulse Hill homes this is the single highest-value thing you can do to the building.
Loft boarding
Storage-readyStorage that does not flatten your insulation. We raise the deck on battens so the full depth survives underneath — the version most Tulse Hill lofts should have had first time.
Loft ladders
Fitted in a dayThe 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-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
Tulse Hill loft insulation — common questions
What happens to the water tank and pipes?
Pipes get lagged and the tank gets insulated on the sides and top only. Leaving the base open is deliberate — it is the only thing preventing a frozen tank in a hard winter.
Do you offer free surveys in Tulse Hill?
Yes. Every enquiry from Tulse Hill and the surrounding area starts with a free, no-obligation visit. We measure the loft, check the joists and ventilation, and write a fixed price afterwards. There is no call-out charge whether you proceed or not.
How much does loft insulation cost in Tulse Hill?
Price depends on the loft's floor area, the depth and condition of anything already up there, how easy the space is to move around in, and whether old material has to be removed. That is why every Tulse Hill quote follows a free survey rather than a phone call. Once given, the price is fixed. Our cost guide sets out each variable.
Do you remove the old insulation?
Where it can stay, it stays and we top over it. Where it cannot, it goes and the disposal is included in the fixed price. You will never find out about removal costs mid-job — that is decided at survey.
Do I need planning permission in Tulse Hill?
None of the work we do requires planning permission. If your Tulse Hill property is listed or in a conservation area, that affects the roof covering and external alterations rather than insulation laid inside the roof space, though it is always worth mentioning at survey.
Do you work in the streets around Tulse Hill?
Yes — we cover Tulse Hill and the whole surrounding area, and our teams are usually working somewhere nearby on any given week. If your street is not obviously listed on our coverage page, ring us anyway; the list is not exhaustive.
