Loft services in Church Village
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.
Terraced houses are 16% 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.
41% of households own outright, so plenty of lofts here were insulated decades ago. Old insulation that has settled, got dusty or been nested in is worth replacing.
Worth checking in a Church Village loft: black spots on the rafters or felt, a musty smell as the hatch opens or droppings, tunnels or shredded insulation. Spot two or more and something is probably wrong.

Loft problems in Church Village: questions
What type of home is most common in Church Village?
Semi-detached houses, at 45% of households in the 2021 Census, then detached houses at 34%.
Is the loft check free?
Yes, with no obligation.
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.
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.
I live just outside Church Village. Is that covered?
Yes. Nearby places such as Pontypridd, Caerphilly, Tonyrefail, Porth and Ystrad Mynach are covered too. Every town we list in Rhondda Cynon Taff.
