Loft services in Rustington
Common loft faults here
Detached homes, 42% here, often have larger, newer lofts. Squashed insulation round the hatch and blocked eaves are the usual snags.
22% of homes in Rustington are semis. Their roomy lofts tend to have decades of storage sitting on thin, flattened insulation, often on boards nailed straight to the joists.
54% of households own outright, so plenty of lofts here were insulated decades ago. Old insulation that has settled, got dusty or been nested in is worth replacing.
Things that tell us a loft needs attention: a musty smell as the hatch opens, a cold draught round the loft hatch or grey, dusty insulation that has lost its spring. Spot two or more and something is probably wrong.
