Loft problems we see in Snodland
With 38% of households in semis, a lot of the lofts we see in Snodland have old insulation that needs stripping out rather than topping up.
Terraced houses are 36% of the housing. In small terrace lofts the eaves get stuffed with insulation, air stops moving and condensation follows. Clearing the eaves usually fixes it.
If you can get into the loft, look out for a cold draught round the loft hatch, drips on nails on frosty mornings or insulation that sits level with or below the tops of the joists. Spot two or more and something is probably wrong.

How do I know if my insulation needs replacing?
It’s thin, grey, damp, stained or has droppings in it, or there’s a musty smell.
There are boards nailed straight onto my joists. Is that bad?
It usually means the insulation underneath is squashed. We lift the boards, fix the insulation and put storage back on a raised floor.
