Hello All

Dont know whether this has been flagged up but NPower in conjunction with Build Centre are currently running a "£1 a roll" insulation offer.

Rolls in thicknesses of 100mm and 170mm so you can insulate to 270mm from scratch or top up an existing 100mm layer.

http://www.npower.com/web/diyloftinsulation/index.htm

Free delivery, gloves & masks as well.

No connection etc...

Me too - many thanks!
Note for other linux users, used the link with my usual Firefox, and communication between offer site and merchants got "lost" - went through a treat using "Opera" Wink

Buildbase say they will charge the full price £24 + delivery  Huh

Edit:
I restarted Chrome and it worked ok. 9 rolls for 9 quid - just the right kick I needed to insulate the tricky part of the roof, under some boarding that needs to be raised.

hmmmm..... wondered if the offer had run out, so tried Firefox again, bunged the figures in the calculator, ticked the boxes etc and it dumped me unceremoniously on the Builder Centre site with no  sign of order, so fired up Opera, did the same things - whack! - order "took", on transfer to BC site, there was the order waiting for me to flash the plastic............
For this deal, it's got to be worth downloading Opera........... Wink

Good evening all - Using my first post to thank 2807 for spotting this fantastic deal.  No difficulties accessing the Build Centre site (links worked fine) although the Checkout process, in my case at least, added a second round of VAT to the total.

I have emailed the company about this.

Regards
Nick

Aren't the roles usually pre-cut to be sliced into 400 or 600mm widths?

easy to cut with a wood saw while still in its rolled state and still shrink wrapped!

For those having browser problems copy the address in the first post, shut down all browser windows, start the browser and paste in the address.
That worked for me.

Also the build centre site may be struggling to keep up, so repeating the above might help or try later at night.
