The biggest problem with loft work is ensuring adequate ventilation of the cavity to avoid moisture build-up.

It is worth modelling your roof thermally to verify if you require a breathable membrane or not.

This isn't an expensive step as a number of insulation companies offer this check as a free service.

Yours sincerely,
