A warmer home in Selby

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.

About a quarter of homes here are terraced (30%). Older terraces often suit natural materials like sheep’s wool, which cope well with moisture.

With 20% renting privately, we often help landlords here, usually in a single day with tenants at home.

It’s worth getting a quote if you’ve noticed old, flattened insulation in the loft, a cold draught on the landing or joists showing through thin insulation. We’ll take a look and tell you honestly what would help.

Questions from homeowners in Selby

Do most people in Selby live in houses?

85% of households live in a house or bungalow and 15% in a flat (2021 Census).

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 Selby. 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 long will it take?

Most lofts are done in a day.

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.

Do you cover homes near Selby?

Yes, across England and Wales, including Goole, Pontefract, Castleford, York and Thorne. See all our towns in North Yorkshire.
