Foil insulation for Stoke-on-Trent's housing stock
Stoke-on-Trent's housing was built for the pottery industry, and much of it still stands. Rows of workers' terraces in Hanley, Burslem, Longton and Tunstall — the six towns that make up the city — date from the 1880s to the 1910s, built from local red brick with slate or clay-tile roofs and shallow rafter depths. The city also has a substantial 1920s and 1930s council-housing legacy in estates like Meir, Blurton and Bentilee, which combine semi-detached and terraced forms on slightly more generous roof geometries. More recent development has pushed south towards Trentham and Barlaston, where modern detached housing sits alongside older farmhouses converted into dwellings.
How we work in Stoke-on-Trent
Pottery-worker terraces have characteristic shallow rafter depths and small loft voids that make foil insulation one of very few retrofit options that actually works without ripping the ceiling down. We've fitted SF19+ across whole streets in Hanley and Burslem for landlords assembling MEES-compliant portfolios, and the speed of install on this kind of stock — once the access is sorted — makes it commercially attractive for both us and the owners. Beyond the terraces, we do a steady flow of conservatory conversions around Trentham and Barlaston, where 2000s-era glazed roofs have aged out and the owners want a proper warm-roof specification with SF40 under the new insulated panels.
What we install
On a typical Stoke-on-Trent job, we survey the roof and recommend the specific SuperFOIL product that best matches the application. SF19+ is our workhorse between-rafters product for retrofit lofts — 11 layers in a slim flexible roll that fits between shallow Victorian rafters without losing headroom. SF40 is specified where a higher U-value is needed or where the roof element is the main line of thermal defence — 37 layers, 12 reflective foils, currently the top of the SuperFOIL range. SFNC is our non-combustible variant for flats, commercial buildings and any application where fire rating drives the specification. Each product carries the full manufacturer guarantee and our own 10-year workmanship warranty.
Areas and neighbourhoods we cover
Our Stoke-on-Trent crew regularly works across Hanley, Burslem, Stoke, Longton, Tunstall, Fenton, Trentham and Newcastle-under-Lyme, as well as the surrounding villages and towns inside the ST1, ST2, ST3, ST4, ST5, ST6, ST7 and the wider ST-postcode area postcode footprint. If you're outside these areas, please phone — we will almost always travel anywhere in Staffordshire and the immediately surrounding counties for a decent-sized job.
Why a specialist matters
A general roofer can put a roll of foil between rafters in an hour. A properly-trained Superfoil contractor will take longer — because we measure and set the air gaps, tape every lap with approved foil tape, preserve the cold-side ventilation, protect the vapour control layer at every service penetration, and hand you compliance paperwork at the end. The difference doesn't show on day one, but it absolutely shows a couple of winters in — and it's the difference between a foil install that quietly performs for 50 years and one that causes condensation problems within 24 months.
Free surveys, written quotes, fixed prices
Every Stoke-on-Trent job starts with a free, no-obligation site survey. We look in the loft, check the roof externally, measure the rafter depth, discuss what you're trying to achieve, and follow up within 48 hours with a written, itemised quote fixed for 60 days. There is no pressure, no call centre, and no commission-hungry salesperson. If foil isn't the right answer for your specific property, we'll tell you.
