What goes wrong in Epsom lofts
36% of homes in Epsom are flats. The roof space above a top-floor flat usually belongs to the freeholder, so check your lease before any work.
15% of homes in Epsom are terraces. Older terrace lofts often have no roof felt, gaps through the party walls and insulation pushed into the eaves, which is a recipe for damp timber.
22% of households rent privately. Condensation from drying clothes indoors often ends up in the loft; landlords can book a check.
Signs that something is wrong up there include black spots on the rafters or felt, grey, dusty insulation that has lost its spring or spray foam stuck to the underside of the roof. If you’d rather not go up, we’ll look for you.

Loft problems in Epsom: questions
What share of homes in Epsom are houses?
64% are houses or bungalows; 36% are flats or maisonettes (Census 2021).
Where does new insulation go?
On the loft floor, between and over the joists, with the eaves kept clear.
Do you work outside Epsom?
Yes, across England and Wales, including Ewell, Ashtead, Tadworth and Epsom Downs, Worcester Park and Stoneleigh and Leatherhead. Every town we list in Surrey.
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.
Can you fix the loft above my top-floor flat?
Usually only with the freeholder’s or managing agent’s agreement. Check your lease first.
I rent in Epsom and there’s damp in the loft. What do I do?
