The Insulation Company helps homeowners arrange loft-insulation assessments, quotations and installation services across the UK.
South East · England
Worthing spreads along the West Sussex coast beneath the South Downs, and its housing reflects a long life as a seaside and retirement town. Victorian and Edwardian terraces and bay-fronted villas cluster around the town centre and seafront, interwar semis fill Broadwater, Tarring and Durrington, and low-set bungalows — many built for retirement — line the quieter roads of Goring and West Worthing. Newer flats have risen near the front in recent years. With so much single-storey and period stock exposed to salt air, loft work here calls for a considered rather than standard approach.
We help homeowners across Worthing and the surrounding West Sussex area arrange loft assessments, quotations and installation. Depending on the service, work may be completed by The Insulation Company or an approved installation partner.
The seafront terraces and villas often have compact, awkward lofts with steep access and original insulation that has settled over many decades. Broadwater, Tarring and Durrington carry large numbers of 1930s semis where a top-up over sound existing wool is usually the sensible route, frequently with storage boards laid straight onto the joists. Worthing's many bungalows are a particular feature: their large roof area relative to floor space makes loft insulation especially worthwhile, though shallow pitches and low eaves can leave working room tight and make airflow easy to block.
Worthing's open coastal position brings salt-laden, humid air, so ventilation deserves as much attention as insulation. In older seafront terraces we keep the eaves clear rather than packing them, because a period roof needs to breathe. In the town's many bungalows the eaves are often shallow and easily obstructed, so we take care to preserve airflow across the whole roof. Where larger homes near the front have been converted into flats, we establish who owns and can reach the loft before recommending work.
The exposed seaside setting means condensation and damp complaints are common in poorly ventilated Worthing lofts, particularly in bungalows and older terraces. Insulation alone will not cure a moisture problem, so we check the cause — airflow, wind-driven rain, a leak or an extractor venting into the roof — before recommending work.
In Worthing, cost is driven mainly by the type of property — a shallow bungalow roof, a period terrace or a straightforward semi — whether old insulation needs removing, and any boarding or ventilation work. Access and parking near the seafront can also add to a job.
You tell us about your property and what you have noticed in the loft. Nothing is committed at this stage.
We review the property age, roof type, loft access and any existing insulation, moisture or ventilation concerns.
Where required, a survey or assessment is arranged so measurements and conditions can be checked in person.
You receive a clear written recommendation and quotation setting out the scope, materials, price and any guarantee.
Work is completed by The Insulation Company or an approved installation partner, with access protected throughout.
Final checks are carried out, the loft is left clean, and relevant documentation and any guarantee are supplied.
These are examples of our work elsewhere, shown to illustrate what a project involves. They did not necessarily take place in Worthing.
Emma's front and rear bedrooms, split by a central chimney breast, both cooled quickly. We insulated the 40m² floor on both sides of the chimney to a full 300mm depth.
Example from our project library
Tom noticed condensation on the bedroom windows and rapid overnight heat loss. We gave his compact 31m² loft a full 300mm Knauf glass mineral wool layer, fitted carefully around the hatch and low edge bays.
Example from our project library
Peter's upstairs ran consistently colder than the ground floor even after a heating service. The 46m² loft was almost completely uninsulated, so we installed a full 300mm Knauf glass mineral wool layer from hatch to gable.

We help homeowners across Worthing and nearby West Sussex, from the town centre and seafront to Broadwater, Tarring, Durrington and Goring, as well as Lancing, Ferring and Shoreham-by-Sea. Request an assessment and we'll confirm coverage for your postcode.
Usually very much so. A bungalow has a large roof area for its floor space, so heat loss through the loft matters more than in a two-storey house. We do take care with the shallow eaves common on Worthing bungalows, keeping airflow clear rather than simply packing material in.
The coastal setting makes ventilation important. If you have noticed condensation or staining, we look at the cause — airflow, wind-driven rain, a leak or an extractor venting into the roof — because insulation alone will not fix a moisture problem.
