Common loft faults here

With 26% of households in semis, a lot of the lofts we see in Lymington have old insulation that needs stripping out rather than topping up.

Terraced houses are 18% 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.

45% of homes are owned outright. Long ownership often means a loft nobody has looked in for years, with whatever problems have built up.

If you can get into the loft, look out for eaves packed so tight no daylight shows, water marks on the ceiling under the loft or insulation that sits level with or below the tops of the joists. Each has a cause we can usually find and fix.

Loft problems in Lymington: questions

What type of home is most common in Lymington?

Detached houses, at 32% of households in the 2021 Census, then semi-detached houses at 26%.

I live just outside Lymington. Is that covered?

Yes. Nearby places such as New Milton, Christchurch, Hythe and Dibden Purlieu, Cowes and Totton are covered too. Every town we list in Hampshire.

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.

Do you work for landlords in Lymington?

Yes. We arrange access with you and your tenants and send photos of what we find.

Is the loft check free?

Yes, with no obligation.

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.
