Did you know?

Cavity wall, pipe, floor & loft insulation is one of the easiest and yet most efficient methods of improving the environmental performance of a building. A well insulated loft can save you up to £155 a year on energy bills.

Glass and rock mineral wool have a sustainability advantage over other insulation materials because they are made from abundant natural raw materials. The performance of mineral wool does not deteriorate over time, and glass wool is fully recyclable at the end of a buildings life and is compression packed to reduce transport emissions.

Get 2 for 1* priced loft insulation, direct to your door with Build Center!

The npower DIY scheme enables all homeowners to purchase 2 for 1* priced Rockwool loft insulation online and have it delivered direct to your door for FREE by your local Build Center*.

FREE delivery saves you the hassle of trying to squeeze 30 rolls of insulation in the boot of your car on a Saturday morning! (It’s impossible by the way and we don’t advise trying it!)

To help you install it, we’ll even throw in an Installation Guide and Safety Kit.

The main rules* are that you must:

  • (a) Be installing it in your own loft
  • (b) Currently have less than 270mm of insulation
  • (c) Have an area of less than 100m² to insulate

Loft insulation is a fantastic way to keep your home cool in the Summer and warm in the Winter. By installing loft insulation up to the recommended depth of 270mm, you will not only be doing your bit for the environment but also your bank balance - with a properly insulated loft you could save up to £150† a year on your energy bills!

Interested? Then why not place your order today!

You can order in 3 ways:

So don’t miss out and remember to tell all your friends and family about the scheme too!
