nod Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 We need around 200 mtrs of cavity insulation Also a pile of low density polystyrene Ive looked online but there doesn't seem much between the ones that ive seen Any saving would be a bonus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crofter Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 I find you get much further by phoning than you do with online prices. Lump everything together to make it as big an order as possible, and phone around asking for the lowest price. If you phone for a price check you might get quoted a lower price than if you say you are actually buying. Of course delivery can be a big issue with bulky things like insulation. No connection other than being a customer, but I got most of my insulation from secondsandco, who deal with surplus, rejected, or otherwise discounted insulation. I haven't seen much in the way of EPS on there though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joe90 Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 As I will be in this situation shortly ( I hope) can you let everyone know who gave you the best price, it may be someone we didn't hear of. Also if anyone has got a good price post it here and let us know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeterW Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 Eccleston Hall manufacture EPS in both white and grey. Was cheapest for me but when I factored in transport it became marginal. Local BM price for white is same as theirs for grey - when you get to 300mm of depth though it's .01 on the uValue so not worth it for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
