A warmer home in Carlisle
Semi-detached homes account for 38%. Many were insulated years ago, and a top-up across the joists brings them up to today’s commonly recommended depth.
32% of Carlisle’s homes are terraces. A draughty landing under the hatch is common in them, and an insulated hatch sorts it.
Signs your loft could do more include a loft nobody has looked in for years, ceilings upstairs that feel cold to the touch or the heating running for longer than you’d like. It costs nothing to find out.

Questions from homeowners in Carlisle
Do most people in Carlisle live in houses?
85% of households live in a house or bungalow and 15% in a flat (2021 Census).
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.
I rent my home in Carlisle. 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.
How deep should loft insulation be?
Around 270 mm is commonly recommended for mineral wool.
