Common loft faults here

Around two in five of homes here are semi-detached (43%). Boxes stacked on thin insulation for years is the usual story in those lofts.

24% 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.

Before you book, have a look for boxes sitting straight on the insulation, spray foam stuck to the underside of the roof or droppings, tunnels or shredded insulation. Each has a cause we can usually find and fix.
