EVERYTHING STARTS WITH TRUST
F.A.Q
What are the benefits of loft insulation?
Loft insulation helps reduce heat loss through the roof, making your home warmer, more comfortable, and more energy efficient.
How much could I save with loft insulation?
Savings vary depending on the property and existing insulation levels, but improving loft insulation can reduce heating bills by up to £350 per year
Do I need to remove my existing loft insulation?
Not usually. Existing insulation is often topped up unless it is damaged or affecting ventilation.
How thick should loft insulation be?
The current recommendation is 270mm of mineral wool insulation.
Will I still be able to use the loft for storage?
In many cases, yes. Raised boarding systems can be installed for storage while maintaining insulation performance.

Most domestic loft insulation installations are completed within one day.

What are the benefits of underfloor insulation?
Many customers notice warmer floors, improved comfort, and reduced draughts.
Can suspended timber floors be insulated?

Will ventilation still be maintained?
Yes. Maintaining essential sub-floor ventilation is a key part of the installation process.
Will floorboards need to be lifted?
Sometimes. This depends on access conditions and floor construction. A home survey will determine this.
How long does underfloor insulation take?
Most domestic underfloor installations are completed within one day.
Is underfloor insulation suitable for every property?
No. Each property should be assessed individually for suitability.

Testimonials
Michael
I approached JMJ to quote for insulation in our old property prior to a heat pump insulation John visited and advised that what I wanted to do could be done by them. A very reasonable quote was received the next day followed by a request by me to double the workload. This was dealt with immediately with an agreed start date. The day before the start I received confirmation that they would arrive tomorrow and start, the team were efficient, took time to avoid any damage to floors etc and kept us fully informed over the two days. The job was completed on time to my specs and spot on budget. I would add that I ran my own property management company for 15 years and have dealt with many contractors but JMJ have shown to be one of the best I have used, a shame I have now retired.
