Can I claim for home costs in my tax return?

I'm self employed and work from home 80% of the week. I'm filling in my self assessment tax return and was wondering if I can claim a proportion of the costs spent on my home as an expense...
I live in a top floor flat - 20% of which is my office, so I was wondering if I'm able to claim for example, 20% of the cost of loft insulation that I have had put in, or 20% of the service charge?
If someone would be able clarify the rules on this I would be really grateful....
