What goes wrong in Coventry lofts
Terraces account for 40% of Coventry’s homes. Where party walls stop short in the loft, warm air, smells and pests pass between houses; we close the gaps on your side.
29% of the housing in Coventry is semi-detached. When we open those hatches we often find cables buried under old insulation and eaves packed tight.
25% of households rent privately. Condensation from drying clothes indoors often ends up in the loft; landlords can book a check.
If you can get into the loft, look out for insulation that sits level with or below the tops of the joists, spray foam stuck to the underside of the roof or drips on nails on frosty mornings. If you’d rather not go up, we’ll look for you.

Loft problems in Coventry: questions
What share of homes in Coventry are houses?
80% are houses or bungalows; 20% are flats or maisonettes (Census 2021).
Can’t you just put new insulation on top?
Not over damp, soiled or mouldy insulation. That hides the problem. We fix the cause first.
Where does new insulation go?
On the loft floor, between and over the joists, with the eaves kept clear.
Can mice get in from next door?
In terraces they often travel along the eaves. We seal the gaps on your side and clear out spoiled insulation.
Do you work outside Coventry?
Yes, across England and Wales, including Bedworth, Kenilworth, Royal Leamington Spa, Nuneaton and Warwick.
I rent in Coventry and there’s damp in the loft. What do I do?
Tell your landlord, who is responsible for the building. Council and housing association tenants should report it to their repairs team. Landlords can book a loft check with us.
