Insulation for Travancore Homes

The best type depends on your home’s construction. Ceiling batts (glasswool or polyester) are ideal for roof spaces, while underfloor bulk insulation suits homes on stumps. Reflective foil or sisalation works well under new roofs. We assess your property to recommend the right solution.

Most ceiling or underfloor insulation jobs in Travancore take a day or less, depending on the home’s size and access. Wall insulation may take longer if internal linings need to be removed. We provide a clear timeline before starting.

Clear the roof space or underfloor area of stored items to give us full access. Ensure pets are secured and inform us of any asbestos concerns. We’ll handle the rest, including cleaning up dust and debris after the job.
