Frequently asked questions

National Insulation Building Contracts is dedicated to ensuring your home is watertight and free from mould and decay. We thoroughly assess the condition of your loft before installing ECO insulation. This ensures the insulation is effective and not placed in a loft with existing water ingress or mould that could spread and destroy new insulation. Your health and home's integrity are our top priorities.

What happens if moisture is above 20% in my loft?
If moisture levels in your loft are above 20%, it indicates a significant problem that needs immediate attention. High moisture can lead to mould growth, timber decay, and can severely compromise the effectiveness of any insulation. We conduct thorough assessments to identify and address these issues before any insulation is installed, preventing further damage and ensuring a healthy loft space.

What makes National Insulation Building Contracts LTD different?
We create a healthy environment for your home. Many people believe the loft isn't part of their home – it's often out of sight, out of mind. However, mould in the loft can spread throughout the house and be detrimental to health. Our comprehensive approach ensures your loft is assessed for any existing issues like moisture or mould before insulation, guaranteeing a healthier living space.

Why is addressing high moisture in the loft important?
Most people don't understand the damage high moisture can do to your home. Beyond mould and structural decay, consistently high moisture levels can reduce indoor air quality, potentially leading to respiratory issues and allergies for residents. Our service goes beyond just insulation; we focus on comprehensive moisture control to protect your home and health.

Do you check for mould and water ingress before insulation?
Absolutely. Our process always begins with a thorough assessment of your loft's condition. This includes checking for any signs of water ingress, existing mould, or dampness. We will not install new insulation until these issues are resolved, as laying insulation in an unhealthy environment would render it ineffective and exacerbate existing problems.
