What to check when hiring insulation installers in New Zealand
MyTrustedTraders ranks on independent public evidence. No ads, no paid placement. Use these checks alongside the evidence on each profile before you decide who to contact.
- In New Zealand, restricted building work must be carried out or supervised by a Licensed Building Practitioner, and all electrical, plumbing, gasfitting and drainlaying by a licensed tradesperson (EWRB for electricians, PGDB for plumbers and gasfitters). Check the public register before you hire.
- For residential building work of $30,000 or more you are legally entitled to a written contract and a disclosure statement setting out the tradesperson's skills, licences and insurance. Ask for both before work starts.
- Look for consistent reviews across several named sources, not one polished profile.
- Check any credential evidence, and that the business details independently check out.
- Get a written quote and keep guarantee, insurance and payment terms in writing.
How to judge an insulation installer
Independent, no-ads guidance. The trade-specific checks that matter most, the warning signs, and what to ask before you hire. Use it alongside each tradesperson’s public evidence above.
Verify before you hire
- Insulation should be installed to the NZS 4246 standard, correct coverage, no gaps, and safe clearances around downlights and flues, so ask how they meet it.
- If the property is a rental it must meet the Healthy Homes Standards for ceiling and underfloor insulation: confirm the installer knows the required R-values.
- Check public liability insurance and GST registration (required above $60,000 turnover).
- Get a written quote stating the product, R-value and areas covered; your work is covered by the Consumer Guarantees Act.
Warning signs of a cowboy
- No mention of NZS 4246 or safe clearances around downlights and flues: a fire risk if done wrong.
- Can't state the R-value or, for a rental, the Healthy Homes requirements.
- Leaves gaps or compresses the insulation, reducing its performance.
- No proof of insurance, a large cash deposit, or no written quote.
Questions to ask before you hire
- How do you install to NZS 4246, including clearances around downlights and flues?
- What R-value will you fit, and does it meet the Healthy Homes Standards if this is a rental?
- Do you carry public liability insurance?
- What product are you using, and what's the warranty?
Frequently asked questions
- How do I choose a trustworthy insulation installer?
- Compare the public evidence on each profile: how many independent reviews they have and across how many named sources, the rating and how recent it is, any credential evidence, and the company status. An insulation installer backed by several named sources is harder to fake than one found in only one place.
- Does MyTrustedTraders rank or recommend insulation installers for payment?
- No. There are no ads and no paid placement. Insulation installers are ranked only by the strength of independent public evidence. No one can pay to rank higher, add a badge, or change their reviews.
- Where do the reviews come from?
- They're imported from named public review sources and always shown with the source named. They aren't reviews written on MyTrustedTraders. We cross-check the same business across sources rather than creating new reviews.
- What should I check before hiring an insulation installer?
- Confirm credentials and insurance directly with the insulation installer, get a written quote, and run the Cowboy Checker on the business first. MyTrustedTraders helps you shortlist on the evidence. It doesn't replace your own checks before you hire.
