Loft services in Flint
Common loft faults here
Around two in five of homes here are semi-detached (44%). Boxes stacked on thin insulation for years is the usual story in those lofts.
17% 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.
If you can get into the loft, look out for water marks on the ceiling under the loft, a cold draught round the loft hatch or drips on nails on frosty mornings. Each has a cause we can usually find and fix.

Loft problems in Flint: questions
What type of home is most common in Flint?
Semi-detached houses, at 44% of households in the 2021 Census, then detached houses at 26%.
Is the loft check free?
Yes, with no obligation.
There are boards nailed straight onto my joists. Is that bad?
It usually means the insulation underneath is squashed. We lift the boards, fix the insulation and put storage back on a raised floor.
What causes black spots on loft timber?
Usually condensation: warm, moist air from the house reaching cold timber. Fans venting into the loft and blocked eaves are common causes.
Do you work for landlords in Flint?
Yes. We arrange access with you and your tenants and send photos of what we find.
I live just outside Flint. Is that covered?
Yes. Nearby places such as Connah's Quay, Neston, Buckley, Hawarden and Heswall are covered too. Every town we list in Flintshire.
