Use this practical survey checklist to assess an area before installing underfloor insulation. Capture key details such as access, total area to be insulated, depth, existing services and required hatches. Verify building health by checking joist moisture is less than 20 percent, confirming a functioning damp proof course and ensuring cross flow ventilation. Identify any damp, rot, mould, infestation or floorboard defects. Complete a dynamic risk assessment covering access and egress, manual handling, tools, vibration, noise, dust, housekeeping and lone working. Record required PPE including gloves, bump cap, protective clothing, ear protection, dust mask, safety specs, ladder ties, harness and safety boots. Confirm sufficient working space and escalate issues to an operations supervisor as needed.
