What goes wrong in Barnet lofts
47% of households in Barnet live in flats, so many don’t have a loft of their own. For the 52% in houses, the usual problems apply: old insulation, condensation, pests.
In Barnet, 33% of homes are privately rented. Tenants spotting damp on top-floor ceilings should tell the landlord, who can arrange a check.
Before you book, have a look for spray foam stuck to the underside of the roof, insulation that sits level with or below the tops of the joists or black spots on the rafters or felt. If you’d rather not go up, we’ll look for you.

Loft problems in Barnet: questions
How many homes in Barnet are flats?
47% of households were in flats or maisonettes at the 2021 Census; 52% in houses or bungalows.
Where does new insulation go?
On the loft floor, between and over the joists, with the eaves kept clear.
I rent in Barnet and there’s damp in the loft. What do I do?
Tell your landlord, who is responsible for the building. Landlords can book a loft check with us.
Can’t you just put new insulation on top?
Not over damp, soiled or mouldy insulation. That hides the problem. We fix the cause first.
Can you fix the loft above my top-floor flat?
Usually only with the freeholder’s or managing agent’s agreement. Check your lease first.
Do you work outside Barnet?
Yes, across England and Wales, including Borehamwood, Brent, Haringey, Camden and Harrow.
