Browse Forums Heating, Cooling & Insulation 1 Apr 04, 2011 8:05 pm Hi Peoples. I want to install roof insulation in my home that we are currently renovating as what is there is pretty useless. What i would like to know has anyone bought insulation from e-bay as some of the brands ie. isofox, viro wool etc etc are half the price of the bunnings stuff, it claims to be up to australian standards, has anyone else purchased this stuff or know anything that i need to know before i purchase. There is easy access so i am going to do the job myself, i'm an Electrician so i know enough about tight roof spaces. Any advice would be great.

Not sure, but he drove for 1.5hours or something to get to us! He was lovely to deal with, and gave us great advice too. Ill see if I can find his details and will PM you Custom European Cabinets - Melbourne Kitchen Specialist PM for business details as website currently being updated! Our Crazy Owner Builder Journey! Re: E-Bay Insulation 5Apr 14, 2011 3:51 pm I used an eBay store called Build Find who also trade under the name Insulation on Demand. Their pricing for Bradford Soundscreen was very competitive, so i bought 40 bags from them. They were very easy to deal with and delivery was quick and hassle free. Re: E-Bay Insulation 6Apr 14, 2011 3:56 pm This guys prices were better I asked if they could match him and received a very rude reply back - up until that point I was going to use them...
