Loft problems we see in Kidlington

Around two in five of homes here are semi-detached (43%). Boxes stacked on thin insulation for years is the usual story in those lofts.

Terraced houses are 19% of the housing. In small terrace lofts the eaves get stuffed with insulation, air stops moving and condensation follows. Clearing the eaves usually fixes it.

21% of households rent privately. Condensation from drying clothes indoors often ends up in the loft; landlords can book a check.

43% of homes are owned outright. Long ownership often means a loft nobody has looked in for years, with whatever problems have built up.

Before you book, have a look for water marks on the ceiling under the loft, insulation that sits level with or below the tops of the joists or a musty smell as the hatch opens. Each has a cause we can usually find and fix.

Loft problems in Kidlington: questions

What type of home is most common in Kidlington?

Semi-detached houses, at 43% of households in the 2021 Census, then detached houses at 23%.

I live just outside Kidlington. Is that covered?

Yes. Nearby places such as Oxford, Bicester, Witney, Abingdon-on-Thames and Carterton are covered too. Every town we list in Oxfordshire.

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.

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.

Is the loft check free?
