What goes wrong in Havant lofts
About a quarter of homes here are semi-detached (30%). Boxes stacked on thin insulation for years is the usual story in those lofts.
About a third of homes here are terraced (34%). Small lofts fill up with storage fast, and the insulation underneath ends up flat and cold.
Things that tell us a loft needs attention: black spots on the rafters or felt, drips on nails on frosty mornings or a cold draught round the loft hatch. Each has a cause we can usually find and fix.

Loft problems in Havant: questions
What type of home is most common in Havant?
Terraced houses, at 34% of households in the 2021 Census, then semi-detached houses at 30%.
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.
How do I know if my insulation needs replacing?
It’s thin, grey, damp, stained or has droppings in it, or there’s a musty smell.
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.
I live just outside Havant. Is that covered?
Yes. Nearby places such as Emsworth, Waterlooville, Horndean, Portsmouth and South Hayling are covered too. Every town we list in Hampshire.
