    That's a fair bit of work but how thick is the insulation on the rigid board?

    €1000 is on the high side for 39sq m + 15 sq m as described. I am a BER assessor and see the quotes for this type of work. I just found a quote for the attic of a 90sq m dormer bungalow with this type of work done for €662 + VAT. Now they did the walls as well for a further €1100 so they would have discounted the attic insulation price a bit.
