Common loft faults here

With 30% of households in semis, a lot of the lofts we see in Frome have old insulation that needs stripping out rather than topping up.

32% 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.

Things that tell us a loft needs attention: a cold draught round the loft hatch, a musty smell as the hatch opens or spray foam stuck to the underside of the roof. Spot two or more and something is probably wrong.

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.
