Professional Loft Insulation Services Nationwide

What is the Purpose of Loft Insulation?

Some homeowners will be surprised to learn that more than 60% of interior heat can be wasted as a result of poorly insulated walls and lofts. To put this into perspective, you could be losing more than £200 every year. This is even more concerning if you happen to live within a colder portion of the United Kingdom. The good news is that Lifetime Savings provides nationwide loft insulation services. There are still a handful of other reasons why now may be a great time for an upgrade.

Benefits of loft insulation

Does your property lack the ‘cosy factor’? If it struggles to stay warm in the winter and cooler in the summer, the chances are your loft may have inadequate insulation. Loft insulation creates a thermal barrier between your rooms below and the roof of your property. It’s typically fitted between the loft’s joists or the roof’s rafters and can last for over 40 years, paying for itself many times over in terms of the savings you enjoy in your energy bills.

Here are five key benefits to loft insulation that you might be able to receive without having to spend a penny of your hard-earned money:

• Ensures your property produces less carbon, limits its environmental impact
• Benefit from a warmer home in winter and a cooler home in summer
• Experience fewer issues with condensation
• Enjoy improved noise reduction in the upper levels of your home
• Improve your home’s Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) rating, increasing its value and appeal

Tell-tale signs your property has inadequate loft insulation

1. Inadequate loft insulation can allow water leaks into your home, damaging interior walls and ceilings
2. If pests such as bugs and mice are common in your loft, your insulation may have holes where pests can burrow
3. The development of damp and mould in your loft is a sign that more loft insulation is needed
4. If you feel your energy bills are higher than usual, it’s important to get your loft insulation inspected by a qualified surveyor

The Relationship Between a Loft Conversion and Roof Insulation

Loft conversions are excellent ways to add value to your home and to make the most out of its living space. Still, a chilly loft is far from comfortable. This is why a loft conversion and roof insulation will often enjoy a hand-in-hand relationship. Properly insulating your loft will ensure that it remains cool in the summer and warm in the winter.
