A warmer home in Heywood

44% of Heywood’s homes are terraces. A draughty landing under the hatch is common in them, and an insulated hatch sorts it.

Semi-detached homes account for 30%. Many were insulated years ago, and a top-up across the joists brings them up to today’s commonly recommended depth.

Common clues are an icy hatch above the stairs, ceilings upstairs that feel cold to the touch or a loft nobody has looked in for years. It costs nothing to find out.

Questions from homeowners in Heywood

Do most people in Heywood live in houses?

87% of households live in a house or bungalow and 13% in a flat (2021 Census).

Do you cover homes near Heywood?

How deep should loft insulation be?

Around 270 mm is commonly recommended for mineral wool.

Is sheep’s wool good for an older terrace?

It can be, as it copes well with moisture. Mineral wool works too and costs less; we can quote for both.

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 much does loft insulation cost in Heywood?

It depends on the size of your loft, what’s there now and the material. We’ll give you a free, written quote.
