Hi,

Can any of the subscribers recommend me a good loft insulation for a
semi-detached two story family house please.

In the end I just applied for a grant via my gas supplier and let the
installers install stuff - plain old fibre glass with a bit of blown
Warmcel (the recycled paper stuff) in a hard to access bit.

=========================================
Did your professional installers make any provision for avoiding wiring if
there is any there? This seems to come up as a problem every time
insulation is discussed.


They didn't , but then the only wiring is for the lighting circuit, and
the load on the cable is such that it won't matter if it covered up.

The chaps who did it were pretty good, did a neat job, no mess. I'm sure
if I'd asked them they would have laid the wiring over the top where
possible.
