Roof insulation services
What is roof insulation?
Roof insulation is a crucial component in maintaining the energy efficiency and comfort of your home. It involves adding insulating materials to your roof to reduce heat loss in the winter and heat gain in the summer. Proper insulation helps regulate your home’s temperature, lowering energy bills and reducing your carbon footprint.
There are various types of roof insulation, including:
- Flat Roof Insulation: Specifically designed for flat roofs, this type provides effective thermal performance and can be installed above or below the roofing membrane.
- Pitched Roof Insulation: Commonly used in attic spaces, this type can be installed between and over the rafters to provide comprehensive coverage.
Roof insulation cost
The cost of roof insulation depends on several factors, including the type of insulation, the size of your roof, and the complexity of the installation. Here’s a breakdown of typical costs:
Average Cost Estimates
- Flat Roof Insulation: Insulating a flat roof can cost between £30 and £50 per square metre, depending on the materials used and the installation method.
- Pitched Roof Insulation: Insulating a pitched roof usually ranges from £20 to £40 per square metre.
Factors Affecting Cost
- Material Quality: Higher-quality insulation materials offer better thermal performance but may come at a higher price.
- Roof Size and Complexity: Larger and more complex roofs require more materials and labour, increasing the overall cost.
- Labour Costs: The cost of labour can vary based on your location and the experience of the roof insulation installers near you.

- Consult Multiple Installers: Obtain detailed quotes from several roof insulation installers near you to compare prices and services.
- Specify Your Preferences: Clearly outline your insulation needs, including material preferences and any specific requirements.
- Check Reviews: Use Rated People to review feedback from previous customers to ensure you’re choosing a reliable expert.
How long will it take to insulate my roof?
The time required to insulate your roof depends on the type of insulation and the size of your roof:
- Flat Roof Insulation: Typically, insulating a flat roof takes 1 to 2 days, depending on the roof’s size and complexity.
- Pitched Roof Insulation: Insulating a pitched roof can take 2 to 3 days, with additional time needed if your attic space requires preparation.

James Butler also trades as CGS Landscapes. He paved my driveway with poor quality slabs in September 2024 blaming the manufacturer and not himself. More broken slabs has been replaced by him 3 times in 6 months. He has refused to respond to my calls. He texted back calling me. STUPID when I texted him to say I will report him to RatedPeople and the authorities. More slabs broke 2 days ago. Sent him the picture. He simply texted back: MOVED TO DEVON NO LONGER WORKING. Please don’t hire James Butler.

The job appeared to go well and the new shower cubicle was well designed and fitted. However, the installer did not call back to check as he had promised. I understand that he was not well at the time following the installation, but it is now 4 months since we heard anything. There were a couple of finishing jobs not done (sealant etc) and some expensive tools left, which are still waiting to be collected.
Very fast service. Well within my budget.
