Loft problems we see in Bootle

Terraced houses are 43% of the housing. In small terrace lofts the eaves get stuffed with insulation, air stops moving and condensation follows. Clearing the eaves usually fixes it.

With 31% of households in semis, a lot of the lofts we see in Bootle have old insulation that needs stripping out rather than topping up.

Signs that something is wrong up there include eaves packed so tight no daylight shows, black spots on the rafters or felt or spray foam stuck to the underside of the roof. Spot two or more and something is probably wrong.

Loft problems in Bootle: questions

What type of home is most common in Bootle?

Terraced houses, at 43% of households in the 2021 Census, then semi-detached houses at 31%.

Will my house get dusty?

We protect the hatch and landing and bag everything in the loft.

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.

Do you work for landlords in Bootle?

Yes. We arrange access with you and your tenants and send photos of what we find.

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 Bootle. Is that covered?

Yes. Nearby places such as Litherland, Crosby, Wallasey, Liverpool and Maghull are covered too. Every town we list in Sefton.
