What goes wrong in Bingley lofts

31% of homes in Bingley are semis. Their roomy lofts tend to have decades of storage sitting on thin, flattened insulation, often on boards nailed straight to the joists.

About a quarter of homes here are terraced (28%). 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, cables buried out of sight under insulation or boxes sitting straight on the insulation. Spot two or more and something is probably wrong.
