Across Aberdeen & North East Scotland
Trusted local specialists helping you save on energy bills and improve home comfort.

If your insulation was put in more than ten or fifteen years ago, it is likely nowhere near the depth it should be. Current building standards suggest a thickness of 270mm—that is about 11 inches of coverage. Many older properties in areas like Bridge of Don or Westhill only have a thin layer of old glass wool that has been squashed down over the years, losing its effectiveness. We use high-grade mineral wool that doesn't just trap heat; it also acts as a fantastic sound barrier against the howling wind and rain on those stormy Scottish nights. We can perform a quick 'top-up' over your existing insulation or a complete fresh install, ensuring every nook and cranny is covered to bring your home up to an efficient EPC rating.

One thing many general 'insulation fitters' overlook is that a roof needs to breathe. If you simply roll out blankets and block up your eaves, you are asking for trouble. Without proper airflow, the warm air from your house meets the cold underside of your roof and turns into condensation. This leads to damp, mouldy timbers, and eventually, rot. Because we are roofing contractors first, we approach insulation differently. Before we lay a single roll, we check the health of your roof, looking for slipped slates or blocked vents. We ensure your eaves ventilation is clear and use breathable membranes where necessary, so your home stays bone-dry as well as warm. Why risk a damp problem by hiring someone who doesn't understand how a roof actually works?

We have seen an increasing number of homeowners in Aberdeenshire running into a real headache when trying to sell or re-mortgage because of spray foam insulation. While it was marketed as a miracle fix, many lenders now refuse to touch properties with spray foam because it hides the condition of the roof timbers and can trap moisture against the wood. If you have been told your property is 'un-mortgageable' due to foam, don't panic. We specialise in the safe, complete removal of spray foam, cleaning the timbers back to their natural state and replacing it with traditional, safe mineral wool. It is a straightforward fix that satisfies surveyors and protects the structural integrity of your home for the long term.
