What goes wrong in Ludlow lofts

Semis are 28% of homes in Ludlow. One shared wall, a big hipped or gabled loft, and often a cold tank and pipes sitting in it unlagged.

With 32% of homes terraced, mice moving along the eaves from house to house are a common complaint in Ludlow. Sealing the gaps comes before new insulation.

With 45% owning outright, many people in Ludlow have lived with the same loft for years. Insulation level with the joists is a sign it’s time to look.

Before you book, have a look for black spots on the rafters or felt, water marks on the ceiling under the loft or eaves packed so tight no daylight shows. Any one of them is worth a free check.

Loft problems in Ludlow: questions

What share of homes in Ludlow are houses?

87% are houses or bungalows; 13% are flats or maisonettes (Census 2021).

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.

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.

Can I keep storing things in the loft?

Yes, on a floor raised above the insulation so it isn’t squashed.

Do you work outside Ludlow?

Yes, across England and Wales, including Leominster, Bridgnorth, Stourport-on-Severn, Kidderminster and Hereford. Every town we list in Shropshire.

How much will it cost to fix my loft in Ludlow?

It depends on what we find, how much has to come out and the size of the loft. The check is free and the quote is in writing.
