Loft insulation for Bedford homes

With 30% of households in semis, a lot of Bedford lofts double as storage. A raised floor keeps your things and your warmth.

Terraced homes make up 21% of the area. Their lofts are usually small, so insulating them properly is quick and makes the upstairs noticeably cosier.

29% of homes in Bedford are flats. If yours is on the top floor, the loft above usually belongs to the freeholder, so check your lease first.

Renting is common in Bedford (25% privately). A warmer loft makes a rented home more comfortable, and landlords can book with us.

It’s worth getting a quote if you’ve noticed joists showing through thin insulation, bedrooms that never quite warm up or boxes sitting on the insulation. We’ll take a look and tell you honestly what would help.

Questions from homeowners in Bedford

Do most people in Bedford live in houses?

70% of households live in a house or bungalow and 29% in a flat (2021 Census).

I rent my home in Bedford. Can I get my loft insulated?

It’s your landlord’s decision, as they look after the building. Council and housing association tenants should ask their landlord. Landlords can ask us for a quote.

My loft is boarded. Is the insulation underneath enough?

Often not, because boards on the joists squash it. We can lift them, insulate and put them back on legs.
