Why book loft insulation installers through Airtasker?

Lofts, which often appear as a habitable space in a building’s upper storey, often shapeshift. If not an extra bedroom or a hangout spot, lofts are often utilised as storage spaces. They also have that distinct charm, usually coming with a high ceiling, a more secluded structure, and an ultimately cosy vibe.

This is why it’s equally important to take care of it, as much as other top-of-mind rooms. One of the things you shouldn’t miss is getting it insulated, which benefits both you and your space. As it regulates temperature, loft insulation makes your environment feel comfortable, all while reducing energy costs—and you don’t need to do this alone.

Head to Airtasker and get in touch with experts in loft insulation and even loft insulation removal near you. Simply tap “Post a Task,” type in your request, and get connected with a Tasker who aligns with your budget and needs.

Top Loft Insulation related questions

With Airtasker, you can save time, energy, and reduce your worries. Instead of scrolling through various pages online or calling multiple numbers to hopefully schedule a service ASAP, you can just visit Airtasker’s page, put up your task and its specifics, and conveniently connect with the Tasker that matches your needs. You can even access past reviews and ratings to help you seal your decision.

In the United Kingdom, loft insulation usually costs £320 – £420 for an average-sized property. The final price can be determined by the type of insulation, size of the project, location, and labour fees, among others.

DIY is possible, but that doesn’t mean it’s exactly advisable. Installation demands serious safety and accuracy in the procedure, which is best to be handled by an experienced professional. Incorrect installation can cause obstruction in airflow, mould growth, and overall discomfort.

What you can do, though, is inspect your loft regularly once it’s already set up by the expert. 

It usually lasts around 20 to 40 years, depending on the materials used or how it’s maintained.

According to the building regulations followed in the United Kingdom, the loft insulation to be installed should be at least 270mm thick. 

Insulation rolls promote energy efficiency and balanced temperatures, and are usually made out of mineral wool, fibreglass, or cotton, among others. Meanwhile, insulation boards, also referred to as rigid foam boards, effectively eliminate the chances of heat loss in houses and buildings. They usually come in the form of PIR (Polyisocyanurate) or PUR (Polyurethane) foam boards. 

For a loft insulation session, it’s safe to allot at least two hours, but it can take a day depending on the size of your loft or complexity of the task.

Suggested reads about Loft Insulation

What does a loft insulation service include?

Fun fact: If your house is uninsulated, about a quarter of the heat that escapes from the house is lost through the roof. This is why loft insulation is essential, as it promotes energy efficiency by keeping the right amount of warmth in your space, whether it’s winter or summer. Moreover, it adds some sense of privacy as in some cases, the insulation becomes a sound barrier, reducing the noise that enters your loft. Ultimately, loft insulation adds value to your property.


Undecided in booking a Tasker? Here’s a closer look at the loft insulation service:


Loft insulation

Before a loft insulation session, it helps to clear your space for easy access, identify wirings, and perform necessary quick repairs, if possible. Your Tasker is expected to bring the needed tools depending on the type of insulation you requested, or as assessed by the expert. The most common type is the blanket insulation, which as its name suggests, covers the area in a blanket-like manner. This process involves insulation rolls (easy-to-cut that’s better at filling gaps) or batts (pre-cut rectangular pieces that are easier to install). 


Meanwhile, loose-fill insulation—also known as blown-in insulation—usually helps oddly-shaped places. It utilises fibreglass (easily available), cellulose (made of recycled paper), or rock wool (ideal for resisting fire and unpleasant elements).


Other types of loft insulation include spray foam insulation, sheet loft insulation, and more. Get connected with a Tasker and find the best process for your property ASAP. With the platform, you can rely on someone knowledgeable to do the job for you, from laying the first insulation layer in between the joists or beams, to keeping you secured with the finished product.


Loft hatch insulation

Loft hatches are often treated as a not-so-secret magical portal in many coming-of-age movies. While it seems like a tiny spot in a big property, keeping it in tip-top shape is integral for your structure’s health, energy-efficiency, sustainability, and even prevents condensation buildup. It’s important not to overlook the hatch to avoid heating or cooling costs to spike, and achieve the most comfortable space possible.


Loft insulation removal

With Airtasker, you can also get in touch with a specialist in removing your loft’s insulation. You’ll know it’s time for a replacement when you’ve already spotted damages or unpleasant elements like holes, moulds, and pests.
