Sheep Wool Loft Insulation Installation in Cheadle

Mr. Ward owned a pre-1920 property which needed to be insulated with Sheep Wool. The wool’s water-absorbent properties make it perfect for a timber-framed building of this age. We started work by removing all waste, namely the existing fibreglass insulation and loose boarding via a skip, before sweeping and hoovering the entirety of the loft.

Leaving eave vents to create a natural airflow throughout the loft, we diligently went about installing 240mm Sheep Wool. We used a storefloor raised boarding to create a small walkway to his water tank, alongside a storage area for his valuables. Finally, we insulated the water tank with a layer of Sheep Wool to give it the same natural, cosy feel as the rest of the attic.
