Loft problems we see in Blyth

Semi-detached houses make up 42%. A frequent find: a bathroom fan blowing into the loft and black spots on the rafters above it.

26% of homes in Blyth 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.

Before you book, have a look for black spots on the rafters or felt, insulation that sits level with or below the tops of the joists or a cold draught round the loft hatch. If you’d rather not go up, we’ll look for you.
