Common loft faults here

With 33% of households in semis, a lot of the lofts we see in Flackwell Heath and Wooburn Green have old insulation that needs stripping out rather than topping up.

15% of households here live in terraced houses, many with slate roofs and no felt. Those lofts need airflow, so insulation must stop short of the eaves.

Before you book, have a look for droppings, tunnels or shredded insulation, spray foam stuck to the underside of the roof or insulation that sits level with or below the tops of the joists. Spot two or more and something is probably wrong.
