ROOM IN ROOF INSULATION

How do I qualify for the free funding?

To get your free funding for room-in-roof insulation in Bradford, you must meet the following criteria:

  • Own a property in Bradford
  • The property has a room-in-roof (which is accessed via a fixed staircase and has a window)
  • You have a household income of less than £30,000 OR receive some form of benefits (such as child tax credit, universal credit, or pension credit)

What is a room-in-roof?

A room-in-roof is a converted loft or attic that can be accessed through a permanent staircase. Insulating this area is a highly effective method for lowering energy bills and enhancing the overall comfort of your living space.

What is room-in-roof insulation?

It provides insulation to the entire roof space, including walls and ceilings, ensuring that the converted room remains well-insulated and comfortable throughout the year.

Why do I need room-in-roof insulation?

By insulating your loft or attic, you can effectively minimise heat loss and lower your energy bills considerably. 

How much heat is lost through a roof?

Did you know that an uninsulated home loses about 25% of its heat through the roof? That’s a significant amount!

Imagine the impact it has on your energy bills over a year. Don’t let your hard-earned money go to waste. Take action and consider insulating your roof to save on heating costs.

What work will be done?

Room-in-roof insulation involves installing insulation materials within the roof space, creating a barrier that prevents warmth from escaping through the roof.

The installation process typically takes around two weeks, ensuring a thorough and effective outcome. 

There are three main types of insulation commonly used in roof insulation: rigid insulation, flexible insulation, and thermal lining boards. 

Our experienced team will thoroughly examine the entire envelope of your property, ensuring proper ventilation to prevent moisture buildup. This strategic ventilation system guarantees a constant flow of fresh air into your home while preserving the warmth you desire.
