Insulation Cost

THE COST

The cost of loft or wall insulation will depend on the size of the area covered and the materials used. Do shop around for several quotes always ensuring that any supplier guarantees their work and it does have the BSI or similar standards that approved businesses work to.

  • GRANTS

The Government is keen to save energy and cut harmful emissions to the atmosphere, so it has made grants available for loft and cavity wall insulation.

It has set targets for major energy providers such as British Gas, NPower and Eon to cut carbon emissions by 2011.

The grants scheme works through an organisation called EnergyLink - and all householders and landlords could see their bills cut by up to 70 per cent! Go to EnergyLink’s website www.freeinsulation.co.uk for further information.

Anyone over the age of 70 or in receipt of certain benefits, tax credits or allowances could be entitled to a 100 per cent insulation grant - so it is well worth checking out.

EnergyLink works through accredited installers to carry out the work and the organisation then bills the supply companies for the cost,

The supply companies and accredited energy installers will all have information on grants but check out for yourself to see how you could benefit.

It is also worth contacting your local authority to see if help is available through them.

Landlords can contact EnergyLink direct or go to www.hmrc.gov.uk.
