What goes wrong in Huyton with Roby lofts

43% of homes in Huyton with Roby are semis. Their roomy lofts tend to have decades of storage sitting on thin, flattened insulation, often on boards nailed straight to the joists.

33% 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.

Things that tell us a loft needs attention: water marks on the ceiling under the loft, grey, dusty insulation that has lost its spring or droppings, tunnels or shredded insulation. Spot two or more and something is probably wrong.
