What goes wrong in Stalybridge lofts

With 30% of households in semis, a lot of the lofts we see in Stalybridge have old insulation that needs stripping out rather than topping up.

33% of households here live in terraced houses, many with slate roofs and no felt. Those lofts need airflow, so insulation must stop short of the eaves.

Things that tell us a loft needs attention: insulation that sits level with or below the tops of the joists, a cold draught round the loft hatch or water marks on the ceiling under the loft. Spot two or more and something is probably wrong.
