Warmer Attic Bedrooms, Lower Bills, Year-Round Comfort

Attic bedrooms and loft conversions are among the hardest spaces in a home to keep comfortable. Sloping ceilings, stud walls, and dormer cheeks allow heat to escape in winter and trap excessive warmth in summer, leaving rooms either too cold or too hot to use properly

Elite Energy’s room in roof insulation installers provide services across the North of England to address these issues at their source. We offer fully funded upgrades through ECO4 and GBIS for eligible households, along with straightforward paid installations and finance options for those looking to invest directly.

Every project is carried out in-house by accredited specialists using proven insulation materials for long-term thermal efficiency. Attic spaces become stable and usable throughout the year, energy demand is reduced across the property, and households benefit from a healthier environment free from cold patches, damp, and seasonal overheating.

What Room in Roof Insulation Does for Your Home

Converting a loft into bedrooms or living space can leave sloping ceilings, stud walls, and dormers exposed to major heat loss. Without insulation, these upper rooms quickly become the coldest part of the house in winter and overheat in summer, making them uncomfortable and expensive to run.

Our room in roof insulation services address this by lining each element of the roof space with high-performance insulation boards or mineral wool. The continuous layer creates a thermal barrier that slows heat transfer, balances upstairs temperatures, and reduces energy waste across the whole property.

For households struggling with draughts, condensation on roof timbers, or unusable attic rooms, this upgrade provides a lasting solution. It strengthens energy efficiency, helps maintain healthier indoor conditions, and supports compliance with EPC standards.

Room in Roof Insulation Costs & Savings

For paid installations, costs start from £100 per m², with the exact price confirmed after a full survey of the loft conversion. The figure depends on the size of the roof space, access, and whether stud walls or dormer cheeks also require insulation.

Average Pricing & Savings:

  • Detached: From £8,000 with typical annual savings of £350-£400.

  • Semi-Detached: From £6,000 with typical annual savings of £250-£300.

  • Terraced: From £4,500 with typical annual savings of £180-£250.

Well-installed roof space insulation can last for decades without deterioration, delivering energy efficiency gains year after year. While payback comes through lower heating demand, the greater value is in transforming attic bedrooms into fully usable spaces, free from seasonal extremes.

Finance options are available for homeowners who prefer to spread the cost of their upgrade into affordable monthly instalments.

Room in Roof Insulation Grants

Through the ECO4 scheme and the Great British Insulation Scheme (GBIS), many households can secure room in roof insulation grants that cover all or most of the installation cost. Both programmes are aimed at improving energy efficiency, cutting heating bills, and making converted lofts comfortable year-round.

For most eligible households, this means their attic or loft conversion can be insulated at little to no cost, improving thermal insulation and making the space more usable throughout the year.

Check My Grant Eligibility

ECO4 Scheme

Focused on low-income and vulnerable households, ECO4 usually covers the full cost of room in roof insulation. This includes the survey, insulation materials, and installation, with no upfront expense for qualifying properties.

GBIS Scheme

GBIS offers broader eligibility, based on council tax bands and EPC ratings. While some households may be asked to contribute a small share of the cost, in most cases room in roof insulation is fully funded.

Solving Heat Loss and Overheating in Attic Bedrooms

Loft conversions and attic bedrooms face unique challenges compared to the rest of the home. Without proper room in roof insulation, sloping ceilings and stud walls allow warmth to escape quickly in winter, while thin roof coverings trap excess heat in summer.

By targeting the sloped ceilings, dormer cheeks, and stud walls, our room in roof insulation services create a balanced, healthier environment, turning underused attic rooms into fully functional spaces.

Cold winters
Insulation slows heat transfer through the roof structure, keeping upstairs bedrooms warmer without extra heating.

Overheating summers
Thermal insulation reduces heat gain from the sun, preventing roof spaces from becoming stifling during hot weather.

Condensation and damp
Warm air meeting cold roof timbers often leads to damp patches and mould. Insulated surfaces stabilise temperatures, protecting against moisture damage.

Noise intrusion
Roof insulation adds density, softening traffic noise and external sounds in exposed loft areas.

Energy waste
Up to 30% of household heat can escape through an uninsulated loft conversion. Proper insulation cuts this loss, reducing bills year after year.

Poor EPC ratings
Many loft conversions drag down a property’s energy performance. Insulation improves EPC ratings, boosting compliance for landlords and long-term property value.

How Room in Roof Insulation Is Installed

Because attic rooms and loft conversions have sloping ceilings, stud walls, and awkward angles, the installation process requires precision. Our room in roof insulation installers adapt methods to suit each property layout, ensuring long-term thermal efficiency without reducing usable space.

Most projects take 3-5 days, depending on the size and complexity of the roof space.

Speak to an Expert

  • 1

    Survey & Assessment

    A detailed inspection of your loft conversion identifies stud walls, knee walls, sloping ceilings, and dormer cheeks. We check for ventilation, damp, or access issues before recommending the most effective insulation method.

  • 2

    Preparation

    Furniture and fittings are carefully moved, with dust sheets laid to protect interiors. Access panels may be created in stud walls to allow insulation to be fitted into hidden voids.

  • 3

    Insulation Fitting

    High-performance roof space insulation materials are fitted between rafters, stud walls, and slopes. Where needed, additional boards are applied across the surface to eliminate thermal bridging. Dormer cheeks and flat ceilings are treated separately to ensure continuous thermal coverage.

  • 4

    Finish & Final Checks

    Surfaces are plaster-boarded and skimmed, leaving walls and ceilings ready for decorating. Any removed fittings, radiators, or skirting are reinstated. Our team inspects all areas to confirm complete thermal coverage, checks ventilation pathways, and issues guarantees for long-term performance.

Frequently Asked Questions

We have tried to answer most questions here but if you have any other queries please feel free to contact us!

Contact Us

How do I know if my attic is suitable for room in roof insulation?

If your loft has been converted into a living space with fixed stairs, sloping ceilings, and stud or dwarf walls, it qualifies as a “room in roof.” Our survey confirms suitability, checks ventilation pathways, and ensures the structure is ready for insulation.

Will room in roof insulation reduce the usable space in my attic?

In most cases, no. Insulation materials are fitted between rafters and stud walls, meaning the visible reduction in space is minimal. Any additional boards applied for thermal bridging are thin enough to preserve room size.

How long does insulation take to install?

Typical projects take 3-5 days, depending on the size of the conversion and the number of surfaces needing insulation. Properties with dormers or complex layouts may take slightly longer.

Can I decorate my attic immediately after insulation?

Yes. Once plaster finishes are applied and dry, the walls and ceilings are ready for painting or wallpapering. Many households align insulation with redecorating to complete the upgrade in one go.

What insulation materials are used for attic bedrooms?

We use a combination of rigid insulation boards and mineral wool, depending on the construction of the roof space. Both materials provide high thermal performance, fire safety, and long-term reliability.

Does room in roof insulation stop summer overheating?

Yes. Insulation reduces heat transfer both ways, keeping warmth in during winter and limiting solar gain in summer. This makes attic bedrooms more stable and usable year-round.

Do landlords qualify for room in roof insulation grants?

Yes, landlords can apply if their tenants meet ECO4 or GBIS criteria. Improving insulation helps rental properties meet EPC requirements, supporting compliance and reducing tenant energy costs.
