Common loft faults here
40% of homes in Maltby are semis. Their roomy lofts tend to have decades of storage sitting on thin, flattened insulation, often on boards nailed straight to the joists.
27% of households here live in terraced houses, many with slate roofs and no felt. Those lofts need airflow, so insulation must stop short of the eaves.
Things that tell us a loft needs attention: spray foam stuck to the underside of the roof, droppings, tunnels or shredded insulation or cables buried out of sight under insulation. Spot two or more and something is probably wrong.
