A warmer home in Royston
Semi-detached homes account for 45%. Many were insulated years ago, and a top-up across the joists brings them up to today’s commonly recommended depth.
With 19% of homes terraced, plenty of Royston families have compact lofts above high-ceilinged bedrooms. A good layer of insulation keeps those rooms warm.
In a Royston home that needs more loft insulation, you might notice bedrooms that never quite warm up, pipes in the loft that need protecting or warmth that fades soon after the heating goes off. The loft is usually the place to start.

Do you cover homes near Royston?
My loft is boarded. Is the insulation underneath enough?

Where does the insulation go?
On the loft floor, between and over the joists, with the eaves kept clear for air.
I rent my home in Royston. 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.
