Underfloor insulation for Reading properties
Reading sits in Berkshire. We work across the RG1 district, including nearby Lower Earley, Wokingham and Crowthorne.
We check ventilation as carefully as insulation in Reading homes, because both matter for keeping a house dry. Small measures like this are often among the cheapest per pound saved, and they suit Reading homes of every age.
On compliance, if cavity wall insulation follows in Reading, filling a cavity is notifiable building work and needs a building notice or competent-person self-certification.
Funding in England
In England, ECO4 runs to 31 December 2026 and Warm Homes: Local Grant supports low-income households through councils.

Keeping the void ventilated
Air bricks under a suspended floor must stay clear so the timbers stay dry. Insulation goes between the joists, not across the void, and gaps at skirtings are sealed to stop draughts.
