Loft services in Egglescliffe
Common loft faults here
With 47% of households in semis, a lot of the lofts we see in Egglescliffe have old insulation that needs stripping out rather than topping up.
Terraced houses are 12% of the housing. In small terrace lofts the eaves get stuffed with insulation, air stops moving and condensation follows. Clearing the eaves usually fixes it.
45% of homes are owned outright. Long ownership often means a loft nobody has looked in for years, with whatever problems have built up.
Things that tell us a loft needs attention: cables buried out of sight under insulation, spray foam stuck to the underside of the roof or black spots on the rafters or felt. Each has a cause we can usually find and fix.
