What is Involved with Insulation
Room in roof insulation employs boards of polyurethane or polystyrene that are placed between the rafters and directly beneath common plasterboard walls. Of course, the main intention is to trap more heat than would be possible with existing techniques.
As these boards can be cut and shaped to unique sizes, they are able to offer a rigid and highly effective thermal barrier. This type of insulation is normally found below the walls of a finished loft. Keep in mind that such an approach is different from typical loft insulation that is found between the floor joists.
Insulation is one of the most effective improvements you can make to your property’s energy efficiency, improving your Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) rating.
- 33% of heating is lost through uninsulated roofs and walls
- Guarantee for all installations
