Keeping Matlock homes warm
Semi-detached homes account for 36%. Many were insulated years ago, and a top-up across the joists brings them up to today’s commonly recommended depth.
Terraced homes make up 19% of the area. Their lofts are usually small, so insulating them properly is quick and makes the upstairs noticeably cosier.
With 44% of homes owned outright, plenty of Matlock lofts still have their original insulation. A top-up can make a lovely difference.
Common clues are a cold draught on the landing, the heating running for longer than you’d like or joists showing through thin insulation. We can help with every one of them.

Questions from homeowners in Matlock
What kind of homes are there in Matlock?
Mostly semi-detached homes (36% of households in 2021), then detached homes (30%).
Can I choose a natural material?
Yes, sheep’s wool or recycled polyester. They cost a little more than mineral wool.
My home is just outside Matlock. Can you help?
Of course. We cover Chesterfield, Somercotes and Swanwick, Belper, Ripley and South Normanton and Pinxton and the villages around them. See all our towns in Derbyshire.
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.
Can I keep using my loft for storage?
Yes. A raised floor above the insulation keeps your storage and your warmth.
Will it be messy?
We protect your landing, keep the dust in the loft and take the waste away.
