Loft services in Bedlington
Common loft faults here
Around two in five of homes here are semi-detached (45%). Boxes stacked on thin insulation for years is the usual story in those lofts.
About one in five of homes here are terraced (18%). Small lofts fill up with storage fast, and the insulation underneath ends up flat and cold.
Before you book, have a look for insulation that sits level with or below the tops of the joists, drips on nails on frosty mornings or a cold draught round the loft hatch. Spot two or more and something is probably wrong.

Loft problems in Bedlington: questions
What type of home is most common in Bedlington?
Semi-detached houses, at 45% of households in the 2021 Census, then detached houses at 22%.
There are boards nailed straight onto my joists. Is that bad?
It usually means the insulation underneath is squashed. We lift the boards, fix the insulation and put storage back on a raised floor.
How do I know if my insulation needs replacing?
It’s thin, grey, damp, stained or has droppings in it, or there’s a musty smell.
I live just outside Bedlington. Is that covered?
Yes. Nearby places such as Blyth, Cramlington, Ashington, Morpeth and Killingworth are covered too. Every town we list in Northumberland.
What causes black spots on loft timber?
Usually condensation: warm, moist air from the house reaching cold timber. Fans venting into the loft and blocked eaves are common causes.
Do you work for landlords in Bedlington?
Yes. We arrange access with you and your tenants and send photos of what we find.
