Loft insulation for Truro homes

Semi-detached homes account for 26%. Many were insulated years ago, and a top-up across the joists brings them up to today’s commonly recommended depth.

28% of homes in Truro are terraced. Terraced houses share walls with their neighbours, which helps, but the roof is still where most warmth can slip away, so the loft is the place to start.

22% of households rent privately. If you rent, loft insulation is your landlord’s decision, and they can ask us for a quote.

Homeowners often tell us about the heating running for longer than you’d like, a loft nobody has looked in for years or boxes sitting on the insulation. We’ll take a look and tell you honestly what would help.
