What goes wrong in Stockton-on-Tees lofts

48% of homes in Stockton-on-Tees are semis. Their roomy lofts tend to have decades of storage sitting on thin, flattened insulation, often on boards nailed straight to the joists.

Terraced houses are 24% 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.

Things that tell us a loft needs attention: boxes sitting straight on the insulation, a musty smell as the hatch opens or eaves packed so tight no daylight shows. Each has a cause we can usually find and fix.
