Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!

Can anyone recommend either a person or company who can advise and lay insulation in my attic? I have had a survey done and know that I need to have at least 200mm insulation and its currently 50mm. And that's the extent of my knowledge!

Suggestions gratefully received.

Thank you

Check with your energy provider, if you have none already they may actually come and do it for free as part of a commitment placed by Government to helped reduce energy use and energy poverty. Especially if you are on any benefits

That said, I am not on benefits and I had someone called the Mark Group cold call as they are an installer and they actually did the job for me and charged the energy company. The down side to their work was that they did the main loft, but (on the day) they refused to do the small loft over the back because the head height was too low- even though they measured it in an ainitial sizing up visit. I think they basically charged the energy provider as though they were doing the whole job though.  

Anyway, they did it for free, here are the two names I have, not sure how current they are:

- Theo 07741 252 484

- Gary 07432 517 313

If they do an initial site inspection make sure you have them commit to doing the rear loft too if you have one, as I am sure they can do this given the right risk assessment. I bet this is a bit of a weeze!

There may be other companies out there that can do this for you. Good luck.

Thank you. I had the same experience with the Mark Group so its my small loft I need done. I will check with the energy company first though.

Thank you

Hi Karen

I am currently selling insulation on ebay and have recently laid this in my friends house in Enfield, with very good results.

It is actually for Water tanks, so is thick and pvc covered. In addition to your 50mm this is 80mm thick and pvc coated, so significantly better than open insulation.

The price is negotiable based on the size of your loft. I can also help lay the insulation, depending on the state of your loft and access.

All the best

Thanks Nick but I think I may have got the loft sorted - fingers crossed.

Karen

I'll keep my fingers crossed for you as well   

Nick
