Room in Roof Insulation Grants
Take advantage of room in roof insulation grants via ECO4 in the UK. Room in roof insulation is a highly effective way to ensure your top-floor rooms are as warm and energy efficient as the rest of your home. If your property has converted attic spaces or rooms in the roof, insulating them can help reduce heat loss, lower your energy bills, and make the space more comfortable. Cucumber Eco helps landlords and tenants access fully funded room in roof insulation through the ECO4 scheme, handling everything from the eligibility check to the professional installation at no cost to you.
We’ve been helping property owners optimise their space and save money making home energy upgrades quick and easy.
Room in roof insulation is designed to combat the unique challenges of insulating attic rooms. By adding the right insulation to the roof and walls, we make these spaces more thermally efficient, preventing heat loss and keeping your home warm throughout the year. Plus, the upgrade will enhance your EPC rating and ensure compliance with future regulations.

What is room in roof insulation?
Room in roof insulation is designed for homes where the loft space has been converted into a living area, such as a bedroom or office. Insulation boards or specialist materials are fitted to the sloping ceilings, walls, and sometimes the loft hatch to keep the space warm and energy efficient.
Can I get room in roof insulation for free?
Yes. Many households qualify for room in roof insulation grants under the government’s ECO4 scheme. These grants usually cover the full installation cost, though occasionally a small contribution may be required if additional work is needed.
Who qualifies for room in roof insulation grants?
You may be eligible if:
You receive means-tested benefits such as Universal Credit or Pension Credit, or you’re referred by your local council under ECO Flex.
Your property has an EPC rating of D–G.
You have a converted loft or attic room with access via a fixed staircase.
How does room in roof insulation improve my home?
Proper insulation prevents heat escaping through the roof, one of the main areas of heat loss in a property. It helps maintain a consistent temperature throughout the home, reduces draughts, and can cut heating bills by up to 25%.
What’s the difference between loft insulation and room in roof insulation?
Loft insulation is installed on the loft floor and suits homes with unconverted roof spaces used for storage.
Room in roof insulation is fitted directly to the sloping ceilings and walls of a converted attic or dormer room where people live or work.
How is room in roof insulation installed?
Installers fit high-performance insulation boards behind the plasterboard or apply insulation directly to the roof structure, depending on the layout. The process is usually completed in one to two days and causes minimal disruption.
Is my home suitable for room in roof insulation?
Your property must have a permanent staircase leading to the converted roof area and sufficient access for installation. Dormer bungalows, houses with attic bedrooms, and converted loft spaces are usually ideal.
Does the work come with a guarantee?
Yes. All ECO4-funded installations are carried out by TrustMark-registered installers following PAS 2030/2035 standards. Room in roof insulation typically includes a 25-year guarantee for materials and workmanship.
Can room in roof insulation be combined with other grants?
