Loft insulation upgrades

Domestic loft insulation installation and upgrades

Modern Hygiene (1992) Ltd carry out domestic insulation works including the re-insulation of attics and lofts. Not many householders consider the fact that traditional loft insulation is only effective for approximately 40 years, after which it will need to be replaced. We can strip out any substandard insulation materials and replace them with new contemporary high-performance materials. Existing insulation can also be improved by upgrading, with additional layers of insulation to bring the property up to current building regulation standards.

Loft insulation works by creating a barrier to the warm air which is rising from the lower levels of your building towards the roof. The warm air can easily escape through your roof unless you place something in its way. The air pockets in insulation trap that warm air and prevent it from being lost into the atmosphere, literally throwing money away! A quarter of your heat can disappear through the roof in an uninsulated home. Insulating your loft, attic or flat roof is a simple and effective way to reduce heat loss and therefore your heating bills.
