With 43% of households in semis, a lot of Cottingham lofts double as storage. A raised floor keeps your things and your warmth.
About one in eight of homes here are terraced (16%). Older terraces often suit natural materials like sheep’s wool, which cope well with moisture.
With 46% of homes owned outright, plenty of Cottingham lofts still have their original insulation. A top-up can make a lovely difference.
It’s worth getting a quote if you’ve noticed a cold draught on the landing, pipes in the loft that need protecting or a chilly top-floor bathroom. The loft is usually the place to start.

Questions from homeowners in Cottingham
Do most people in Cottingham live in houses?
84% 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.
How long will it take?
Most lofts are done in a day.
How deep should loft insulation be?
Around 270 mm is commonly recommended for mineral wool.
Do you cover homes near Cottingham?
Yes, across England and Wales, including Willerby and Anlaby, Kingston upon Hull, Beverley, Hessle and Barton-upon-Humber. See all our towns in East Riding of Yorkshire.
My loft was insulated years ago. Should I add more?
If it’s level with the joists or below, a top-up is usually worthwhile.
