What goes wrong in Rugeley lofts
Semi-detached houses make up 44%. A frequent find: a bathroom fan blowing into the loft and black spots on the rafters above it.
With 18% of homes terraced, mice moving along the eaves from house to house are a common complaint in Rugeley. Sealing the gaps comes before new insulation.
Things that tell us a loft needs attention: insulation that sits level with or below the tops of the joists, boxes sitting straight on the insulation or droppings, tunnels or shredded insulation. If you’d rather not go up, we’ll look for you.
