Loft problems we see in Crewe
With 40% of households in semis, a lot of the lofts we see in Crewe have old insulation that needs stripping out rather than topping up.
About a quarter of homes here are terraced (24%). Small lofts fill up with storage fast, and the insulation underneath ends up flat and cold.
Private renting is common in Crewe (23%). The loft is easy for landlords to forget until damp shows through a ceiling.
If you can get into the loft, look out for eaves packed so tight no daylight shows, insulation that sits level with or below the tops of the joists or boxes sitting straight on the insulation. Spot two or more and something is probably wrong.
