What goes wrong in Bexhill-on-Sea lofts
18% of the housing in Bexhill-on-Sea is semi-detached. When we open those hatches we often find cables buried under old insulation and eaves packed tight.
10% of homes in Bexhill-on-Sea 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.
37% of homes in Bexhill-on-Sea are flats. The roof space above a top-floor flat usually belongs to the freeholder, so check your lease before any work.
Many households here (48%) own outright. Lofts that were insulated back when they moved in are often thin, dusty and due a look.
If you can get into the loft, look out for boxes sitting straight on the insulation, a cold draught round the loft hatch or droppings, tunnels or shredded insulation. If you’d rather not go up, we’ll look for you.

Loft problems in Bexhill-on-Sea: questions
What share of homes in Bexhill-on-Sea are houses?
63% are houses or bungalows; 37% are flats or maisonettes (Census 2021).
Where does new insulation go?
On the loft floor, between and over the joists, with the eaves kept clear.
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.
Do you work outside Bexhill-on-Sea?
Yes, across England and Wales, including Hastings, Eastbourne, Hailsham, Polegate and Seaford. Every town we list in East Sussex.
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.
My loft insulation is decades old. Does it need replacing?
If it’s dry and clean, a top-up may be enough. If it’s dusty, damp or soiled, it should come out.
