What goes wrong in Kirkby lofts
41% of the housing in Kirkby is semi-detached. When we open those hatches we often find cables buried under old insulation and eaves packed tight.
Terraces account for 36% of Kirkby’s homes. Where party walls stop short in the loft, warm air, smells and pests pass between houses; we close the gaps on your side.
Things that tell us a loft needs attention: water marks on the ceiling under the loft, spray foam stuck to the underside of the roof or drips on nails on frosty mornings. Any one of them is worth a free check.
