Insulation on the Roof Slope, Not the Floor
Warm Roof Insulation is fitted along the rafters rather than the loft floor. Unlike simple Loft Insulation, it’s required whenever a loft becomes a habitable room — the loft itself becomes part of the heated house, so the insulation has to move from the floor to the roof slope.
Required for Habitable Lofts
Whenever a loft becomes a bedroom, office or living space, building regulations require insulation along the rafters, not just the floor.
50mm Ventilation Gap
A maintained gap between insulation and roof covering lets moisture escape, preventing condensation and rot in the roof timbers.
PIR or Phenolic Boards
Higher-performance insulation than mineral wool, needed because rafter depth is more limited than loft floor space.
Usually No Need to Remove Tiles
In most cases warm roof insulation is fitted from inside, without touching the roof covering, unless a full re-roof is happening anyway.
Not the Same as Loft Insulation
If your loft is staying a storage space, not a room, Loft Insulation is what you need instead.
Fully Insured, Every Job
Public liability insurance covers every survey and installation we carry out.

Frequently Asked Questions
All Your Most Common Questions Answered
Loft Insulation is laid flat on the loft floor, for lofts that stay unused storage space. Warm Roof Insulation is fitted along the rafters, required whenever the loft becomes a habitable room, such as with a Velux conversion. They solve different problems and aren't interchangeable.
Yes, essentially always. Building regulations require insulation along the rafters whenever a loft becomes a habitable room, unlike simple loft insulation which only applies to unused storage space.
Roughly 100–150mm of PIR or phenolic board is the current standard for warm roof insulation, compared to 270mm of mineral wool for loft floor insulation — PIR/phenolic performs better per millimetre, which matters where rafter depth is limited.
Without a maintained airflow gap between the insulation and the roof covering, moisture can become trapped and cause condensation, leading to timber rot over time. We always maintain this gap as standard.
Usually yes — warm roof insulation is normally fitted from inside the loft. Removing tiles is only needed if you're having a full re-roof at the same time.
Yes. Every warm roof insulation job comes with a 12-month workmanship guarantee.
