What goes wrong in Newark-on-Trent lofts

Semi-detached houses make up 34%. A frequent find: a bathroom fan blowing into the loft and black spots on the rafters above it.

With 26% of homes terraced, mice moving along the eaves from house to house are a common complaint in Newark-on-Trent. Sealing the gaps comes before new insulation.

Private renting is common in Newark-on-Trent (24%). The loft is easy for landlords to forget until damp shows through a ceiling.

Things that tell us a loft needs attention: a musty smell as the hatch opens, boxes sitting straight on the insulation or eaves packed so tight no daylight shows. If you’d rather not go up, we’ll look for you.

Loft problems in Newark-on-Trent: questions

What share of homes in Newark-on-Trent are houses?

80% are houses or bungalows; 19% are flats or maisonettes (Census 2021).

Can I keep storing things in the loft?

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

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.

I rent in Newark-on-Trent and there’s damp in the loft. What do I do?

Tell your landlord, who is responsible for the building. Council and housing association tenants should report it to their repairs team. Landlords can book a loft check with us.

Where does new insulation go?

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