Room in Roof Insulation Grants
Room in Roof Insulation grants are available to pay for the entire cost of having loft or attic rooms insulated. If you receive a benefit that qualifies, then you should be entitled to a 100% grant to pay for Room in Roof Insulation, depending on the type of heating system you have installed.
The grant funding is part of the Government’s Energy Companies Obligation scheme. The main Energy Suppliers such as British Gas, NPower, etc. have to pay for Insulation in private, domestic households.
Many older properties that were originally built with a loft/attic room or ‘Room-in-Roof’ were not insulated at the time. If insulation was installed, it is often inadequate by modern standards. Loft conversions that were carried out more than 30 years ago are also likely to be poorly insulated, if at all. Many loft rooms are therefore cold and difficult or impossible to heat.
