What is room-in-roof insulation?
Do you have a converted loft or attic room that feels uncomfortably cold in the winter and too hot in the summer? Room in roof insulation is the perfect solution.
Unlike standard loft insulation, which is laid on the floor, this solution is fitted into the sloped sides of the roof, transforming your living space into a comfortable, energy-efficient room you can use all year round.

Benefits
Insulating a room in the roof is one of the most effective ways to make your home more energy-efficient and comfortable. With an insulated room in the roof, you can expect:
✔ Consistent Comfort: By preventing heat from escaping in winter and entering in summer, it keeps your converted loft at a comfortable temperature all year.
✔ Lower Energy Bills: With a well-insulated roof, you'll reduce your reliance on heating and cooling, leading to significant savings on your energy bills.
✔ Environmental Impact: By consuming less energy to heat or cool your home, you'll reduce your carbon footprint and contribute to a greener future.
✔ Improved Home Value: A properly insulated and comfortable loft room can add value to your property.
✔ Quiet Living: The insulation material also acts as a sound barrier, helping to reduce external noise from rain and traffic.
What does Room-in-roof insulation look like and where does it fit in your house?
Think of room-in-roof insulation as an extra layer for your attic. It comes in a few different shapes and sizes:
Type of insulation | What does it look like? | Where does it go? |
Blanket roll insulation | Soft and fluffy, like a wool blanket. | Fills the gaps between wooden beams. |
Rigid board insulation | Solid and flat rectangles covered with foil or a natural material. | Fits between wooden beams also. |
The type of insulation you use will depend on the size and shape of your attic. Our friendly team can help you choose the best insulation for your home.
How it works
Room in roof insulation fills the spaces between the wooden beams or rafters in the sloped ceiling of your converted loft. This creates a continuous thermal barrier that stops heat from passing through the roof. A variety of materials, including soft, fluffy blankets, rigid boards, or spray foam, can be used to fill the gaps, depending on the specific construction of your roof.
