Professional loft insulation upgrades for homeowners, landlords and rental properties across Warwickshire and surrounding areas.
Improving the insulation in your loft can help reduce heat loss, improve comfort and reduce the amount of energy required to heat your home.
It can also contribute towards improving the Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) of a property — making loft insulation an increasingly important consideration for homeowners, landlords and property investors.
At Joe Day Loft Control, we provide professional loft insulation top-ups and loft insulation replacement, helping properties achieve effective, consistent insulation without compromising ventilation or usable loft storage.
Whether your existing insulation is simply too shallow, poorly installed, damaged or contaminated, we can assess your loft and recommend the most appropriate solution.
Your EPC considers how energy efficient your property is, including how effectively the building retains heat.
The loft is one of the key areas to consider.
An uninsulated roof can account for around 25% of heat loss from a home, while properly installed loft insulation helps retain heat and reduces demand on the heating system.
Many properties already have some insulation installed, but that doesn't necessarily mean it's performing effectively.
Common problems we find include:
If your existing EPC recommends additional loft insulation, or you simply aren't sure what's currently installed, we can assess the loft and advise on the most appropriate upgrade.
If your existing loft insulation is clean, dry and correctly installed but simply isn't deep enough, topping it up can be a cost-effective way of improving its performance.
Where appropriate, additional insulation can be installed over the existing layer to achieve a more effective overall depth and consistent coverage throughout the loft.
Current guidance recommends around 270mm of mineral wool insulation as a minimum for modern installations.
Benefits of upgrading loft insulation include:
Energy efficiency is becoming increasingly important for landlords.
The Government has confirmed that privately rented homes in England and Wales will be required to meet a higher energy efficiency standard equivalent to EPC C from 1 October 2030, unless a valid exemption applies.
For landlords with properties currently rated EPC D or E, now is a sensible time to understand what improvements may be required rather than waiting until closer to the deadline.
Improving the thermal performance of the building will form an important part of the new standard — and loft insulation can be one of the more straightforward areas to investigate.
If your rental property's EPC recommends additional loft insulation, we can assess what's currently installed and provide a quotation for the appropriate works.
Our landlord loft services include:
We can work with private landlords, letting agents, property managers and property investors, including customers with multiple rental properties.
The 2030 changes may be bringing EPC ratings into focus for landlords, but improving energy efficiency makes sense for homeowners too.
You might be considering upgrading your loft insulation because:
Whatever your reason, the loft is a sensible place to investigate.
We'll assess what's already installed before recommending whether you require an insulation top-up or complete replacement.
Not every loft should simply have more insulation laid on top.
Existing insulation may need to be removed where it has become:
Where necessary, we can remove the existing material, clear the loft space and install fresh insulation with consistent coverage.
Our close relationship with Joe Day Pest Control also means we have extensive experience dealing with loft spaces following rat and mouse infestations.
Increasing insulation depth can create another problem — where do you put your loft boards?
Installing boards directly over deep insulation can compress the material and reduce its effectiveness.
That's why we offer raised loft boarding systems.
The boarding platform is raised above the insulation, allowing the required insulation depth to be maintained while still creating a safe and practical storage area.
Raised loft boarding gives you:
This is particularly useful if you're upgrading your insulation but don't want to lose valuable storage space.
Joe Day Loft Control provides professional loft insulation, raised loft boarding, loft clearance and loft access improvements across Warwickshire, the West Midlands, Oxfordshire, Worcestershire and the surrounding areas.
So whether you're looking for loft insulation in Warwick, an insulation top-up in Leamington Spa, EPC improvements in Stratford-upon-Avon, landlord loft insulation in Coventry, raised loft boarding in Rugby or loft insulation replacement in Solihull, Joe Day Loft Control can help.
Loft insulation involves more than simply adding another roll of insulation.
Existing insulation condition, coverage, ventilation, electrical installations, pipework, water tanks, loft hatches and future access all need to be considered.
We'll assess the loft and recommend a solution suited to your individual property.
Our services include:
Our aim is simple: a warmer, more efficient and more usable loft space.
Whether you're a homeowner looking for a warmer, more energy-efficient property or a landlord preparing for future EPC requirements, we can help.
If you have a current EPC, you can also send us the recommendations alongside photographs of your loft and approximate measurements.
We'll advise whether an insulation top-up, replacement or combination of insulation and raised boarding is most appropriate.
