Installing under GBIS involves insulation boarding being fitted in between the rafters underneath the existing plasterboard walls.

Room in roof insulation works by trapping heat within your home to create a blanket effect.

This allows you to more easily maintain a warm home without using as much energy to do so, saving you money on your energy bills.

The cost of fitting room in roof insulation depends on the type of property, but usually falls between £1,500 and £2,700.

While this may be a little more expensive than other forms of insulation, it could well pay for itself when it comes to using it as part of an attic conversion, which will add value to your property.

A typical detached house will see annual savings of £225, while semi-detached properties can expect to save £135 each year.
