What goes wrong in Hessle lofts
About a third of homes here are semi-detached (36%). Boxes stacked on thin insulation for years is the usual story in those lofts.
35% 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.
If you can get into the loft, look out for boxes sitting straight on the insulation, cables buried out of sight under insulation or eaves packed so tight no daylight shows. Spot two or more and something is probably wrong.
