How-To Guides
How to Insulate Under Rafter
1. Cut the Material Required

Measure the amount of material required for your first strip and cut. It is most common for customers to insulate horizontally, but the choice is yours.

2. Staple the Multifoil in to Place

Staple the Multifoil to the underside of the Roof Rafters. We advise stapling every 300mm to ensure that the material is held securely in place. Pull the material nice and straight where possible, to keep it neat and also to make the cutting process easier for you too.

3. Install your Second Layer...

When installing your second layer, overlap the material onto the former layer by 50mm. Continue insulating until you have full coverage, following the above instructions.

4. Finish as you please!

You may wish to leave the insulation exposed - which is fine. However, it is quite common for customers to nail/screw battens into place before boarding - if they are wanting to create a usable room. This is not required but is a popular option.

5. If you would like to double the performance, you can!

You can double the performance by installing two layers. To save on space, you recess the first layer to the side of the roof rafter. This way, you still have an air cavity behind the product, but you also have an air cavity between the first and the second layer too.

6. Staple next Layers

Continue installing your first layer until you have full coverage.

Question and Answer
Can I double up on the insulation?

Yes, you can do 2 layers of insulation as long as you recess the first layer into the joists and staple it in place then layer the second layer over the top of the joists.

What should I use to cut the insulation?

In this kit, we provide a pair of 10” multifoil insulation scissors which are perfect for the job.

Do I need to overlap the insulation?

Yes, you do need to overlap the insulation otherwise you won’t get the best thermal performance. We don’t recommend taping and sealing the insulation in this application so overlapping the insulation will stop any draughts from getting in and warm air from escaping.

Will the foil insulation cause any problems with damp?

No, actually this will help prevent damp and mould and it’ll help reduce the risk of condensation.

Do I need any specific PPE to complete this job?

No, you don’t need any protective clothing, masks, or safety goggles as there are no harmful fibres in the insulation. However, if you’re removing any fibreglass before laying the multifoil insulation we do recommend using a mask and gloves because it can irritate your skin and lungs.

Can I board over this insulation?

Yes, you can board over this insulation by adding wooden battens over the top of the insulation and attaching what you’d like to board over with to the wooden battens.
