Loft problems in Filton: questions
What share of homes in Filton are houses?
75% are houses or bungalows; 22% 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 Filton?
Yes, across England and Wales, including Patchway, Stoke Gifford, Bradley Stoke, Frampton Cotterell and Winterbourne and Kingswood and Fishponds. Every town we list in South Gloucestershire.
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.
I rent in Filton and there’s damp in the loft. What do I do?
Tell your landlord, who is responsible for the building. Landlords can book a loft check with us.
Can I keep storing things in the loft?
Yes, on a floor raised above the insulation so it isn’t squashed.
