Loft problems we see in Cradley Heath

37% of homes in Cradley Heath are semis. Their roomy lofts tend to have decades of storage sitting on thin, flattened insulation, often on boards nailed straight to the joists.

About a quarter of homes here are terraced (25%). Small lofts fill up with storage fast, and the insulation underneath ends up flat and cold.

Signs that something is wrong up there include droppings, tunnels or shredded insulation, insulation that sits level with or below the tops of the joists or black spots on the rafters or felt. Spot two or more and something is probably wrong.

Loft problems in Cradley Heath: questions

What type of home is most common in Cradley Heath?

Semi-detached houses, at 37% of households in the 2021 Census, then terraced houses at 25%.

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.

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 Cradley Heath. Is that covered?

Yes. Nearby places such as Halesowen, Rowley Regis, Brierley Hill, Dudley and Oldbury are covered too. Every town we list in Sandwell.

Will my house get dusty?

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

Do you work for landlords in Cradley Heath?

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