Loft problems we see in Hale

Detached homes, 42% here, often have larger, newer lofts. Squashed insulation round the hatch and blocked eaves are the usual snags.

Semis are 30% of homes in Hale. One shared wall, a big hipped or gabled loft, and often a cold tank and pipes sitting in it unlagged.

Many households here (43%) own outright. Lofts that were insulated back when they moved in are often thin, dusty and due a look.

If you can get into the loft, look out for cables buried out of sight under insulation, water marks on the ceiling under the loft or a cold draught round the loft hatch. If you’d rather not go up, we’ll look for you.

Loft problems in Hale: questions

What share of homes in Hale are houses?

88% are houses or bungalows; 12% are flats or maisonettes (Census 2021).

Do you work outside Hale?

Yes, across England and Wales, including Wythenshawe, Altrincham, Wilmslow, Sale and Cheadle. Every town we list in Trafford.

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.

My loft insulation is decades old. Does it need replacing?

If it’s dry and clean, a top-up may be enough. If it’s dusty, damp or soiled, it should come out.

My surveyor flagged spray foam. Can you remove it?

Yes. We cut it off by hand, leave the timbers visible and give you photos for your lender.

Where does new insulation go?

On the loft floor, between and over the joists, with the eaves kept clear.
