I'm living in a 3 storey house and I do notice that the 3rd storey is way hotter than the rooms in 2nd storey and the living room which suggest that the roof is badly insulated. How do these insulation materials deal with downlights that protudes out of the roof ceiling area. Do they cover the whole thing?

Foil type of thermal insulation is usually installed between roof truss and batten. It follows the gradient of the roof, hence does not sit on top of the ceiling. Other insulations may sit on top of the ceiling. Usually they cut holes where the downlights protrude.

Can this type be installed after the house is fully done up and renovated. Do you have to remove all the roof tiles to install this type of insulation?
