Questions from homeowners in Stanley
Do most people in Stanley live in houses?
94% of households live in a house or bungalow and 6% in a flat (2021 Census).
Do you cover homes near Stanley?
Yes, across England and Wales, including Chester-le-Street, Birtley, Whickham, Consett and Blaydon. See all our towns in County Durham.
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 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.
How long will it take?
Most lofts are done in a day.
