Roof insulation services

What is roof insulation?

Roof insulation is a crucial component in maintaining the energy efficiency and comfort of your home. It involves adding insulating materials to your roof to reduce heat loss in the winter and heat gain in the summer. Proper insulation helps regulate your home’s temperature, lowering energy bills and reducing your carbon footprint.

There are various types of roof insulation, including:

  • Flat Roof Insulation: Specifically designed for flat roofs, this type provides effective thermal performance and can be installed above or below the roofing membrane.
  • Pitched Roof Insulation: Commonly used in attic spaces, this type can be installed between and over the rafters to provide comprehensive coverage.

Roof insulation cost

The cost of roof insulation depends on several factors, including the type of insulation, the size of your roof, and the complexity of the installation. Here’s a breakdown of typical costs:

Average Cost Estimates

  • Flat Roof Insulation: Insulating a flat roof can cost between £30 and £50 per square metre, depending on the materials used and the installation method.
  • Pitched Roof Insulation: Insulating a pitched roof usually ranges from £20 to £40 per square metre.

Factors Affecting Cost

  • Material Quality: Higher-quality insulation materials offer better thermal performance but may come at a higher price.
  • Roof Size and Complexity: Larger and more complex roofs require more materials and labour, increasing the overall cost.
  • Labour Costs: The cost of labour can vary based on your location and the experience of the roof insulation installers near you.

Getting Accurate Quotes

To get the most accurate estimate for your roof insulation project:

  1. Consult Multiple Installers: Obtain detailed quotes from several roof insulation installers near you to compare prices and services.
  2. Specify Your Preferences: Clearly outline your insulation needs, including material preferences and any specific requirements.
  3. Check Reviews: Use Rated People to review feedback from previous customers to ensure you’re choosing a reliable expert.

How long will it take to insulate my roof?

The time required to insulate your roof depends on the type of insulation and the size of your roof:

  • Flat Roof Insulation: Typically, insulating a flat roof takes 1 to 2 days, depending on the roof’s size and complexity.
  • Pitched Roof Insulation: Insulating a pitched roof can take 2 to 3 days, with additional time needed if your attic space requires preparation.

Other roof insulation FAQs

What are the benefits of roof insulation?

Roof insulation helps reduce energy bills, improves indoor comfort, and lowers your carbon footprint by maintaining a stable indoor temperature year-round.

How often should roof insulation be replaced? 

Roof insulation can last many years, but it’s good to check its condition every 10-15 years or if you notice significant changes in your home’s energy efficiency.

What type of insulation is best for my roof?

Ahe best insulation depends on your roof’s structure and budget. Common options include fibreglass for pitched roofs, rigid foam for flat roofs, and spray foam for excellent air sealing. Consult a professional to choose the most suitable type.

Mark was very helpful, friendly and professional. He replaced the flashing on my flat roof kitchen extension and sealed the felt joints on the roof at a reasonable price. Mark informed me any problems just to contact him and he would return to sort it, hopefully no further problems will arise. I would have no hesitation in having RML do any future work i needed.

Really pleased with the job completed on my roof. The team communicated well and explained things in detail showing me pictures of what was going on up on the roof. They also gave me options on what I needed to have done- rather than trying to exploit the situation. 100% recommend and will definitely use again for my extension. Thank you Panel Care!

Very pleased with newly installed sliding patio doors. The 2 gentlemen who installed it, were polite,friendly and helpful. They left the area clean and tidy. There was a slight problem with the lock, and they duly reported it to Louis Harbison. He came today to replace it but the barrel of the lock seems ok now. He is keeping the replacement barrel in case I have any more trouble. I would recommend this company for any work to be done

If you want building work done then GN Building Services are brilliant, not just excellent!. Before we said to go ahead he had introduced us to four former clients and showed us the work completed. He and his team are probably the hardest working tradesmen I have ever come across and talk about working to time and budget. I should really keep this review quiet as they are very much in demand and I need some more work doing - but I can not rate them highly enough.
