Ivanas did a fantastic, technical job of cutting insulation for the floor of our new log cabin and then fitting the floor overtop. He worked tiredlessly for five hours and absolutely cracked through this job. He had enough energy left to help move a heavy exercise bike. He’s also a super friendly/cheerful bloke. Overall, would absolutely recommended. Thank you, Ivanas!

What does a roof insulation service include?
Roof insulation may seem like a simple process - measure, cut, and install. But effective insulation installation requires a professional to consider a number of issues, like the building frame, ventilation, air gaps, and vapour barriers. Your installers will then choose the best type of insulation for your climate and home and organise installation for you. Here are some common types of insulation service and what you can expect from each:
Bulk insulation
Bulk insulation is the most common type of insulation because of its availability and effectiveness. It works by trapping millions of air pockets that resist heat. This type of insulation can come in batts, boards, or loose-fill, and can be produced from a variety of materials. Your installer will climb into your roof cavity to access the ceiling and measure the required dimensions. Next, they’ll cut the material to the right size and install your insulation. They’ll be careful to avoid compressing the bulk insulation, as the compression can reduce air pockets and compromise the material’s insulation ability.
Batts insulation
Many consider batts insulation as the best format for bulk insulation. This type of insulation often comes in rolls and is easy to transport and carry. Ceiling batts insulation can be made from a range of materials, including natural wool, polyester, fibreglass, and rockwool. Your installer will help you choose the best option based on your budget, environmental concerns, the potential for fire hazards, and other factors. They’ll install your insulation batts, ensuring no gaps between insulation. When they’re finished, they’ll clean up the area and any tools used.
Board insulation
Board insulation has a high insulating value for a relatively small thickness. This type of insulation is useful in buildings where there is very little space between the ceiling and the roof. It’s most popular for commercial buildings. Board insulation usually comes in polystyrene or polyisocyanurate (PIR). Polyisocyanurate is a thermoset, rigid foam, typically with reflective foil laminate on one or both sides, and has excellent fire and moisture absorption properties. Polystyrene is generally used for buildings where thermal performance is required because of its exceptional compressive strength. Your installer will recommend the most suitable materials for your building.
Loose-fill insulation
Loose-fill can be used in ceilings, however, it can settle over time and lose effectiveness. Loose-fill is best used for adding insulation to the nooks and crannies around irregularly shaped areas and obstructions. The most common materials for this type of insulation include cellulose, fibreglass, and mineral wool (rock or slag). Your installer will recommend the best type of loose-fill depending on the weather conditions and temperature ranges in your home.
Reflective foil insulation
Reflective foil works by reducing the heat transfer across enclosed spaces. This material works most effectively when the shiny surface faces inwards towards an enclosed space - like in most roofs. Your installer may use reflective foil on its own or with bulk insulation for an effective ‘hybrid insulation’. The roof insulation installation process is similar to the ceiling insulation installation, however, the installer will use a staple gun to apply the material to the roof. The most commonly used materials for this type of insulation include wall wrap, aluminium foil adhered to paper or plastic substrate, concertina batts, foiled cardboard, and/or foiled bubble wrap.

Insulation of a glass surface area for noise
£200
Barnsbury, Greater London, N1
14th Nov 2024
Your Task Details I am trying to find someone with an expertise in noise insulation for an internal area where there is a surface glass and metal area allowing communication between two rooms in a duplex apartment. The rooms are on a different floor. Working from home is challenging since conversations can be heard clearly and we need to find a solution to reduce the noise passing through the glass surface. Can take a video to make clearer the issue. Since we are tenants we look for solutions that are not permanent and can be removed easily in the future if we need to.

Sound Insulation Between Offices
£1,000
Whitechapel, Greater London, E1

We need to add additional sound insulation (acoustic engineer suggests vinyl but open to ideas) to existing upper office walls. We also need to insulate additional offices. We have some wood on site and many rolls of the grey fabric as seen in photos but quote should otherwise include the cost of materials. In photo, right side is insulated but needs more. Left side is open and wooden beams plus insulation need to be installed. There are roughly 11 sections that need to be done but we will prioritise 4 of them. Feel free to quote for 4 (roughly 4M in width) and note what you'd charge for each additional segment.

Hi there, We have a Dunster House Evil Amy log cabin. A builder made the frame for us last weekend but he can’t come back to install the floor for 6 weeks. What’s left is the insulation boards to be cut and fitted and the floor boards laid over them. We’ve been told it should take less than half a day. You’ll need a circular saw. It’s a 4.5m x 3m cabin with two compartments. We have free on-street parking. I can send lots of pics through. Thanks again! - Due date: Before Wednesday, 26 April 2023

Underfloor insulation
£700
Denmark Hill, Greater London, SE5
4th Jan 2023
I need underfloor insulation installed but can't lift all of the floorboards. I need to know if this is doable without ruining the floorboards so need someone to come out and inspect for me. There are 3 rooms with suspended floors, shown in the pics are the lounge and hall. There are built in wardrobes in the bedroom and lounge which would need to be dismantled to gain access to the floor in those rooms so I'm hoping someone can get in through the hall floorboards and access the other two rooms that way. It's an 1890 property so I'm not sure if that's feasible but I understand they were all built with communication channels - Due date: Flexible
