Since 1986
10,000+ Queensland roofs
Watch first · 46 minutes, in Peter’s own words
Roof insulation: what works, what doesn’t, and the scams to avoid.
From a man who’s insulated more than 10,000 houses. If you watch one thing before you spend a dollar on insulation, make it this — it’ll save you from the mistakes that leave homes hotter, not cooler.
What Peter covers — skip to what matters to you
Why a badly-installed roof can make your home hotter
The single most important point in the video: insulation done wrong — gaps, the wrong product, covering things that shouldn’t be covered — can trap heat and leave you worse off. Peter shows exactly how it happens, so you know what a good install actually looks like.
The scams and dodges to watch for
The “it removes moisture and stops mould” line, bad installers blaming your house or your whirlybird when a job fails, and the tricks that make a cheap quote expensive. Peter names them plainly.
Cellulose vs batts — and when each is right
Why he recommends pumped-in cellulose fibre for most roofs (a seamless blanket with no gaps, fire- and vermin-treated), and where polyester batts genuinely suit — like under floors.
Every roof type — raked, flat, Cliplok, Super 6, walls
Raked and exposed-beam ceilings, A-frame/snow roofs, flat wrap-over iron with no manhole, Cliplok, Super 6 / fibro, and internal and external walls — how each is approached, and why some need a specialist.
How we quote without coming out to your house
We measure your roof online and email a detailed fixed price, usually within 48 hours — no site inspection, no deposit, no pressure. More on that below.
Why it matters who installs it
Insulation is a trade. Most of the bad jobs I fix were done by someone who treated it as a side gig.
The product only works if it's installed right — evenly, with no gaps, and with the roof left safe. Here's what you're actually paying for when you choose a specialist.
A family business since 1986.
Peter has personally insulated over 10,000 Queensland roofs. This isn't a call-centre franchise — you deal with the people doing the work.
Our own trained crews — no day-labour subbies.
The person in your roof is our own team, or a local Comfort Zone franchise owner whose name is on the job. Accountable, either way.
We're installers first, not a removal-and-upsell shop.
Careful, unhurried work — and half the time we'll tell you that you don't need removal at all, just a top-over.
Fully insured, licensed, and honest about it.
Made to AS/NZS 4859.1, fixed-price quotes, no deposit, no day-of surprises.
A proper install: cellulose fibre pumped as one seamless blanket, laid flush and even — no gaps for heat to sneak through.

Straight answers
Roof insulation installers, Brisbane — the questions we get asked.
Do you subcontract, or are the installers your own team?+
The crew in your roof are our own trained team in the areas we service directly — or, in a franchise area, the local Comfort Zone franchise owner whose own business and reputation ride on the job. We don't hand your roof to day-labour subbies who come and go. It's a big reason our work is consistent.
Which Brisbane suburbs do you cover?+
We install right across Brisbane and South East Queensland — from the bayside (Wynnum, Manly, Redlands) through the northside (Strathpine, Margate, Moreton Bay), the west (Ipswich, Springfield), Logan and out to the Gold and Sunshine Coasts. If you're unsure, send your address through the online form and we'll confirm on the spot.
How do you quote — do you need to come out first?+
No site inspection needed. We measure your roof from satellite imagery and the details you give us, and email you a detailed fixed-price quote — usually within 48 hours. No deposit, and the price we quote is the price you pay. That's how we keep it fair and fast.
Why should I use a specialist roof insulation installer instead of a handyman?+
Because most of the damage I get called out to fix — sagging batts, gaps that halve the R-value, downlights covered when they shouldn't be, a home that ended up hotter — comes from someone treating insulation as a side job. It's a trade. Watch the 46-minute explainer above and you'll see exactly what separates a proper install from a bad one.
What insulation do you install?+
We specialise in pumped-in cellulose fibre (a seamless blanket with no gaps, made from recycled paper and borate-treated for fire and vermin), and we supply polyester batts where they suit — under floors, for example. We'll recommend what's genuinely right for your roof, not what's easiest to sell.
