Loft problems we see in Ellesmere Port

Semis are 42% of homes in Ellesmere Port. One shared wall, a big hipped or gabled loft, and often a cold tank and pipes sitting in it unlagged.

Terraces account for 24% of Ellesmere Port’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.

If you can get into the loft, look out for insulation that sits level with or below the tops of the joists, drips on nails on frosty mornings or a cold draught round the loft hatch. If you’d rather not go up, we’ll look for you.

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.
