Loft problems we see in Haverfordwest
27% of homes in Haverfordwest are semis. Their roomy lofts tend to have decades of storage sitting on thin, flattened insulation, often on boards nailed straight to the joists.
About a quarter of homes here are terraced (27%). Small lofts fill up with storage fast, and the insulation underneath ends up flat and cold.
23% of households rent privately. Condensation from drying clothes indoors often ends up in the loft; landlords can book a check.
If you can get into the loft, look out for cables buried out of sight under insulation, droppings, tunnels or shredded insulation or insulation that sits level with or below the tops of the joists. Each has a cause we can usually find and fix.

Do you work for landlords in Haverfordwest?
Yes. We arrange access with you and your tenants and send photos of what we find.
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.
How do I know if my insulation needs replacing?
