What goes wrong in Lee-on-the-Solent lofts

Detached homes, 41% here, often have larger, newer lofts. Squashed insulation round the hatch and blocked eaves are the usual snags.

Semi-detached houses make up 28%. A frequent find: a bathroom fan blowing into the loft and black spots on the rafters above it.

Many households here (50%) own outright. Lofts that were insulated back when they moved in are often thin, dusty and due a look.

Signs that something is wrong up there include droppings, tunnels or shredded insulation, water marks on the ceiling under the loft or insulation that sits level with or below the tops of the joists. If you’d rather not go up, we’ll look for you.

Loft problems in Lee-on-the-Solent: questions

What share of homes in Lee-on-the-Solent are houses?

85% are houses or bungalows; 15% are flats or maisonettes (Census 2021).

Do you work outside Lee-on-the-Solent?

Yes, across England and Wales, including Fareham, Gosport, Locks Heath, Portsmouth and Cowes. Every town we list in Hampshire.

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.

Where does new insulation go?

On the loft floor, between and over the joists, with the eaves kept clear.

My surveyor flagged spray foam. Can you remove it?

Yes. We cut it off by hand, leave the timbers visible and give you photos for your lender.

Can’t you just put new insulation on top?

Not over damp, soiled or mouldy insulation. That hides the problem. We fix the cause first.
