Home/Services/Attic insulation

Attic insulation in Dublin.

A lot of the heat you pay for goes out through the roof. Insulation is topped up or laid fresh from inside the attic, with the eaves vents kept clear so the roof timbers stay dry.

Attic insulation

What we do in the attic.

Many Dublin attics have a thin, patchy layer from decades ago, or nothing at all. Bringing it up to a proper depth is one of the simplest ways to make a house warmer.

Top-up insulation

Where there is some insulation, more is laid across it to bring the depth up, with the joists still findable and the eaves left open to breathe.

Fresh insulation

Where there is nothing, or what is there is damp and flattened, it is cleared out and new insulation laid between and across the joists.

Warning signs

Does your attic need insulating?

You can check most of these yourself with a torch from the hatch. The survey confirms it.

Pricing

How insulation is priced.

The price comes from the floor area of the attic, the depth you need to add and how much clearing there is to do first. It is written down before we start.

Questions

Attic insulation questions.

What people ask about warming the house from the top.

Is there a grant for attic insulation?

SEAI runs grants for attic insulation in eligible homes, and the work has to be done by an SEAI-registered contractor. The rules and amounts change, so check seai.ie for the current scheme and the contractor list before you book.

Can I insulate an attic I use for storage?

Yes. Raised boarding goes over the insulation so it is not squashed flat, and you keep a floor to walk and store on.

Will insulation cause condensation?

Not if the ventilation is right. The eaves vents must stay clear, and the hatch and any downlights sealed. Condensation on the underside of the felt is a sign of poor ventilation, so the survey checks for it.

Can you do it while re-roofing?

Insulation between the rafters can go in while the roof is open. Insulation at ceiling level is laid from inside the attic, so it can be done at any time, with or without a re-roof.

Cold upstairs?
