Loft problems we see in Sheffield
Semis are 37% of homes in Sheffield. One shared wall, a big hipped or gabled loft, and often a cold tank and pipes sitting in it unlagged.
Terraces account for 27% of Sheffield’s homes. Where party walls stop short in the loft, warm air, smells and pests pass between houses; we close the gaps on your side.
20% of households rent privately. Condensation from drying clothes indoors often ends up in the loft; landlords can book a check.
Before you book, have a look for black spots on the rafters or felt, eaves packed so tight no daylight shows or insulation that sits level with or below the tops of the joists. Any one of them is worth a free check.
