Loft services in Stone
Common loft faults here
38% of homes here are detached. Big lofts mean big areas of spoiled insulation when something goes wrong, and long eaves where pests can find a way in.
About a quarter of homes here are semi-detached (25%). Boxes stacked on thin insulation for years is the usual story in those lofts.
If you can get into the loft, look out for cables buried out of sight under insulation, black spots on the rafters or felt or drips on nails on frosty mornings. Spot two or more and something is probably wrong.
