Room‑in‑roof insulation (also known as “loft conversion insulation” or “pod loft” insulation) involves applying high‑performance insulating materials to the roof slope and party walls of attic or loft‑conversion rooms. By creating a fully wrapped thermal envelope around your habitable loft space, it keeps your converted rooms warm in winter, cool in summer and free from condensation issues.
Key Benefits of Insulating Your Room-in-Roof
•Year‑Round Comfort
Maintains stable temperatures in attic bedrooms or home offices by preventing heat loss through roof slopes and gable walls.
•Lower Energy Bills
Heat lost through an uninsulated loft conversion can account for up to 30% of your home’s overall heat loss; proper insulation can save hundreds on annual heating costs.
•Condensation & Mould Prevention
Correctly detailed insulation plus vapour control layers prevents cold spots and condensation, protecting joists and plasterboard from damp.
•Sound Reduction
Insulation can help dampen external noise—ideal if your room runs beneath a busy road or neighbouring roof terraces.
•Building Regulations Compliance
Achieves the required U‑values (typically 0.18 W/m²·K or better) so your conversion meets Part L energy standards.
Under the UK’s Energy Company Obligation (ECO4) scheme, running until 31 March 2026, qualifying homeowners and landlords can receive 100% grant funding for room‑in‑roof insulation—including materials, installation and a long‑term insurance‑backed guarantee.
You qualify for a free ECO4 room‑in‑roof insulation grant through freehousekit.co.uk if you:
1.Live in a Property Rated EPC D, E, F or G
2.Occupy a Home in Council Tax Band A–D (England) or A–E (Scotland/Wales).
3.Receive a Means‑Tested Benefit, such as:
•Universal Credit, Income‑based Jobseeker’s Allowance, Income Support
•Employment & Support Allowance, Pension Credit
•Child Tax Credit, Working Tax Credit, Housing Benefit
•Warm Home Discount Scheme Rebate
Note: Pure disability benefits (e.g., Disability Living Allowance alone) no longer qualify under ECO4.
Complete our simple form to confirm grant entitlement.
An accredited surveyor visits to assess roof pitch, joist configuration and party‑wall details, then specifies the optimal insulation system (e.g., PIR boards, insulated plasterboard, or mineral wool with vapour barrier).
We handle all liaison with your energy supplier to secure full ECO4 funding.
On completion, you receive an Energy Performance Certificate update plus an insurance‑backed 25‑year guarantee covering materials and workmanship.

Most conversions sized 20–30 m² are fully insulated in 2–3 days, depending on roof complexity and access conditions.
Insulation depth (typically 100–150 mm) sits within the rafter void; you lose only a few centimetres of internal height and kneerail depth, which is usually imperceptible.
Yes, tenants can qualify—provided they supply landlord consent before work commences.
We integrate eaves or ridge vents (where required) and breathable membranes to maintain adequate airflow and control moisture.
Absolutely. ECO4 encourages a whole‑house approach: you may also qualify for cavity/solid wall insulation, boiler upgrades or heating controls under the same scheme.
