Heat moves toward cold. In winter it escapes up through an under-insulated roof; in summer it pours back down into your bedrooms. A full 270mm layer slows both — so the rooms below hold a steadier temperature and your heating works less hard.
Norwich wraps a medieval, flint-built core in ring after ring of later housing. Closest in are the celebrated Victorian and Edwardian terraces of the Golden Triangle, Heigham and Thorpe Hamlet, and the Georgian townhouses around Magdalen Street. Beyond them sit the 1920s–30s council estates at Mile Cross, leafy 1930s suburbia in Eaton, post-war and planned developments at Hellesdon and Bowthorpe, and modern family estates out at Thorpe St Andrew and Sprowston. A great many of these period lofts were built long before insulation was a thought, so the rooms below run cold in winter and stuffy in summer. We work with the quirks of every roof type.

“Our bay-fronted Victorian terrace in the Golden Triangle was always freezing upstairs. They topped the loft up to a proper depth and it's transformed the whole house.”Eleanor H. · Golden Triangle, NR2
“No pushy upselling — they recommended a wool top-up and boarded one side for storage. Tidy, fair and done in a day.”
“Old terrace off Magdalen Street with thin, settled insulation. They sorted it and the bedrooms hold their heat so much better now.”

Topping a Norwich loft up to the recommended 270mm typically starts from around £250, depending on size, access and material. Your free survey gives you a fixed price with no obligation.
Yes — a lot of Norwich is period terraces in the Golden Triangle, Heigham and around Magdalen, much of it in conservation areas. We work carefully around older timbers, dormers and tight loft hatches, and flag anything that needs consent before starting.
Almost always. The estates at Mile Cross, Hellesdon and Bowthorpe often have thin or settled insulation well below today's standard — exactly the homes that feel the biggest difference from a top-up.
Not when it's done properly. Poor airflow is what causes loft condensation, so we check ventilation on every job and insulate in a way that lets the roof breathe.
Most Norwich loft jobs are finished in a single day, and we leave your home clean and tidy.
