Loft problems we see in Eastwood
Detached houses are 40% of homes in Eastwood. Some had spray foam added to the roof in the past, which can cause trouble when the house is sold or remortgaged.
Semi-detached houses make up 36%. A frequent find: a bathroom fan blowing into the loft and black spots on the rafters above it.
Many households here (42%) own outright. Lofts that were insulated back when they moved in are often thin, dusty and due a look.
If you can get into the loft, look out for boxes sitting straight on the insulation, cables buried out of sight under insulation or a musty smell as the hatch opens. If you’d rather not go up, we’ll look for you.

Loft problems in Eastwood: questions
What share of homes in Eastwood are houses?
92% are houses or bungalows; 7% are flats or maisonettes (Census 2021).
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.
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.
Do you work outside Eastwood?
Yes, across England and Wales, including Heanor, Ilkeston, Hucknall, Ripley and Somercotes and Swanwick. Every town we list in Nottinghamshire.
My surveyor flagged spray foam. Can you remove it?
Yes. We cut it off by hand, leave the timbers visible and give you photos for your lender.
Where does new insulation go?
On the loft floor, between and over the joists, with the eaves kept clear.
