Once Green Puzzle insulate to this level you will provide a greater barrier and dramatically reduce the heat loss through the roof.
If you have not checked your insulation, then the chances are that you do not have enough loft insulation, in fact, you may not have any insulation at all!! This is why 35% of all your heat is being lost through walls, and a further 25% through lofts.

Loft insulation reduces the amount of heat escaping through the roof. The installation is hassle free and inexpensive to have professionally installed.

If your water tanks are more than 1m from the hatch, a walk board will also be fitted.
Up to 25% of the heat lost in your home escapes through the roof. Loft insulation helps to prevent this heat loss and save you money on your heating bills. Loft insulation also has the opposite effect in the summer by ensuring your house is kept much cooler.
It not only works out cheaper to have the insulation fitted under a Government-backed grant scheme but there are several additional extras included. During the winter months, the loft will become much colder so any pipes must be lagged to prevent them from freezing. The same applies to cold water tanks. The grant schemes also include draught proofing and insulating the hatch, in addition to fitting a walkboard if you have a tank that is more than 1 metre from the hatch.

It Takes Longer
Insulating a loft yourself could take you most of a day. A professional installation is hassle free and takes you no time.
Quality of Workmanship
Unless you are a great DIY enthusiast, the quality of your finished job will not be up to the same industry standard.

Most lofts can contain thick layers of dust and fibres from previously laid insulation.
