Loft problems we see in Clitheroe
With 33% of households in semis, a lot of the lofts we see in Clitheroe have old insulation that needs stripping out rather than topping up.
37% of households here live in terraced houses, many with slate roofs and no felt. Those lofts need airflow, so insulation must stop short of the eaves.
Things that tell us a loft needs attention: a cold draught round the loft hatch, eaves packed so tight no daylight shows or drips on nails on frosty mornings. Each has a cause we can usually find and fix.

Will my house get dusty?
