Frequently asked questions

How much does private loft insulation cost in your area?

Private loft insulation typically costs between £300 and £600 for a standard semi-detached house, depending on the area to be covered and current insulation depth. Prices in your area vary between installers, which is why comparing quotes is worthwhile.

Could I get funded insulation instead of paying privately?

Possibly. If you receive Universal Credit, Pension Credit, Income Support, or another qualifying means-tested benefit, and your home has an EPC rating of D or below, you may qualify for free insulation under the Warm Homes Plan. Check the Warm Homes Plan eligibility page to see whether you qualify before committing to a private quote.

What is the typical payback period for private insulation in your area?

Loft insulation typically pays back its installation cost within two to four years through reduced heating bills. Cavity wall insulation has a similar payback period. Solid wall insulation has a longer payback period of seven to twelve years but provides more significant heat loss reduction.

Are private installers in your area accredited?

Reputable insulation installers hold TrustMark registration and NAPIT or NICEIC approval. We connect you with installers who meet relevant industry standards. Always ask to see accreditation credentials before any work begins.

Does private insulation improve my EPC rating?

Yes. Adding or upgrading insulation is one of the most effective ways to improve your EPC rating. This can increase your property's value, lower energy bills, and may make you eligible for future grant-funded upgrades if your rating remains below a certain threshold.

Is the quote service free?

Yes. Requesting quotes through this service is free. You are under no obligation to accept any quote. The service is funded by commissions paid by participating installers.
