Loft services in Glossop
Common loft faults here
About one in five of homes here are semi-detached (22%). Boxes stacked on thin insulation for years is the usual story in those lofts.
About a third of homes here are terraced (37%). Small lofts fill up with storage fast, and the insulation underneath ends up flat and cold.
If you can get into the loft, look out for boxes sitting straight on the insulation, droppings, tunnels or shredded insulation or a musty smell as the hatch opens. Spot two or more and something is probably wrong.
