I have managed to get some free loft and cavity wall insulation. I have loads of stuff in the loft but intend to reduce that by clearing out, however there will still be a few boxes left. The main loft area is currently floored and it is my intention to get them to place insulation over this. Once they have finished what damage (in terms of insulation loss) am I likely to do if I place some boxes on the insulation and compact it, the area that will be compacted is above bedrooms we dont use and the heating is rarely on in these rooms. There is not a lot of headroom in the loft so dont want to build onto/above the rafters to create a raised floor, in any case I wouldnt have time before the insulation goes in. I really need to put some of this back up in the loft as it is mainly antique stuff and worth a few bob so I want it up there and out the way. Some of it I can span the rafters that support the roof as they are long and light.
Any thoughts/ideas
thanks
