What goes wrong in Oxted lofts
About a quarter of homes here are semi-detached (29%). Boxes stacked on thin insulation for years is the usual story in those lofts.
About one in five of homes here are terraced (19%). Small lofts fill up with storage fast, and the insulation underneath ends up flat and cold.
Before you book, have a look for boxes sitting straight on the insulation, water marks on the ceiling under the loft or cables buried out of sight under insulation. Spot two or more and something is probably wrong.
