    Add Vapour Barriers for Extra Protection

    When insulating your loft, using a vapour barrier is essential to protect your insulation from moisture. Vapour barriers are especially important in colder climates like the UK, where condensation can form inside roof spaces. Without a vapour barrier, moisture can seep into the insulation, reducing its thermal efficiency and potentially causing mold and damp issues over time.

    By installing a vapour barrier, you create a protective layer that prevents moisture from entering the insulation while allowing excess vapour to escape. This helps maintain the performance of your insulation and prolongs its lifespan, making it a crucial addition for homes in Peterborough, Huntingdon, and Corby.

    Check out our GTEC Vapour Plasterboard for excellent moisture control and protection in your insulation project.

    PIR Insulation Boards for Extra Efficiency

    If you're looking for insulation with superior thermal performance, consider using PIR insulation boards. These boards are thinner and offer excellent thermal efficiency, making them ideal for lofts, walls, and floors. PIR boards are highly efficient and perfect for homeowners and builders in Peterborough, Huntingdon, and Corby.

    Roofing Battens for Secure Installation

    In addition to loft insulation, you may need roofing battens to secure your roof structure. Roofing battens provide essential structural support, ensuring that insulation materials are properly installed and your roof remains durable.
