Loft problems we see in Ashford

Semi-detached houses make up 32%. A frequent find: a bathroom fan blowing into the loft and black spots on the rafters above it.

28% of homes in Ashford are terraces. Older terrace lofts often have no roof felt, gaps through the party walls and insulation pushed into the eaves, which is a recipe for damp timber.

21% of households rent privately. Condensation from drying clothes indoors often ends up in the loft; landlords can book a check.

Worth checking in a Ashford loft: drips on nails on frosty mornings, boxes sitting straight on the insulation or cables buried out of sight under insulation. If you’d rather not go up, we’ll look for you.
