What goes wrong in Southwater lofts
Detached houses are 40% of homes in Southwater. Some had spray foam added to the roof in the past, which can cause trouble when the house is sold or remortgaged.
Semis are 26% of homes in Southwater. One shared wall, a big hipped or gabled loft, and often a cold tank and pipes sitting in it unlagged.
Things that tell us a loft needs attention: spray foam stuck to the underside of the roof, a cold draught round the loft hatch or boxes sitting straight on the insulation. If you’d rather not go up, we’ll look for you.

Loft problems in Southwater: questions
What share of homes in Southwater are houses?
86% are houses or bungalows; 12% are flats or maisonettes (Census 2021).
Do you work outside Southwater?
Yes, across England and Wales, including Horsham, Crawley, Cranleigh, Hassocks and Hurstpierpoint and Burgess Hill. Every town we list in West Sussex.
My surveyor flagged spray foam. Can you remove it?
Yes. We cut it off by hand, leave the timbers visible and give you photos for your lender.
Can’t you just put new insulation on top?
Not over damp, soiled or mouldy insulation. That hides the problem. We fix the cause first.
Where does new insulation go?
On the loft floor, between and over the joists, with the eaves kept clear.
How long does a loft job take?
A check takes under an hour. Removal and new insulation usually take one or two days.
