The Benefits of Loft Insulation
According to the Energy Saving Trust, an uninsulated home loses around 25% of its heat through the roof. For the mix of period cottages, Victorian terraces and larger detached homes common across Henley-on-Thames and the surrounding villages, older or insufficient insulation is a frequent issue.
Good loft insulation delivers:
Lower heating bills year-round
A warmer home in winter and cooler rooms in summer
An improved Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) rating
Long-lasting results — insulation typically performs well for 40+ years

Insulation Depth and Headroom
Many homeowners in Henley worry that adding insulation will eat into their usable loft space. Older properties often have around 100mm in place — well below the current recommended depth of 270mm.
Where the loft is used for storage, we often suggest around 200mm as a practical balance. For lofts not used for storage, the full 270mm delivers maximum efficiency. We'll advise on the best approach at your free survey.
Loft Insulation Regulations
All our thermal fibre insulation installations meet current UK Building Regulations:
270mm total depth — the minimum recommended depth under current UK Building Regulations
U-value performance — ensuring your home retains heat efficiently
Ventilation maintained — to prevent condensation and damp in the roof space
