Why Roof Insulation Matters in Melbourne
When Should You Install Roof Insulation?
For new homes and buildings, roof batts should be installed prior to the roof cladding being fitted. Installing insulation underneath the roofing material helps block radiant heat gain during Melbourne’s hotter months.
In existing homes, insulation older than 10 years often develops gaps and loses efficiency. Topping up or replacing your roof insulation ensures consistent indoor temperatures and improved energy performance.
Choosing the Right R-Value for Roof Insulation
Selecting the correct R-value is crucial for optimal insulation performance.
We recommend:
- Minimum R4.1 batts for ceilings
- R5.0 or R6.0 for superior thermal resistance in Melbourne’s varied climate
Our experienced team can guide you in choosing the best insulation products to suit your home’s needs.
