Loft services in Litherland
Common loft faults here
41% of homes in Litherland are semis. Their roomy lofts tend to have decades of storage sitting on thin, flattened insulation, often on boards nailed straight to the joists.
About a third of homes here are terraced (37%). Small lofts fill up with storage fast, and the insulation underneath ends up flat and cold.
If you can get into the loft, look out for a cold draught round the loft hatch, spray foam stuck to the underside of the roof or eaves packed so tight no daylight shows. Spot two or more and something is probably wrong.

Loft problems in Litherland: questions
What type of home is most common in Litherland?
Semi-detached houses, at 41% of households in the 2021 Census, then terraced houses at 37%.
I live just outside Litherland. Is that covered?
Is the loft check free?
Yes, with no obligation.
Do you work for landlords in Litherland?
Yes. We arrange access with you and your tenants and send photos of what we find.
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.
There are boards nailed straight onto my joists. Is that bad?
It usually means the insulation underneath is squashed. We lift the boards, fix the insulation and put storage back on a raised floor.
