Loft services in Stotfold
Common loft faults here
About a third of homes here are semi-detached (36%). Boxes stacked on thin insulation for years is the usual story in those lofts.
19% 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.
Before you book, have a look for boxes sitting straight on the insulation, insulation that sits level with or below the tops of the joists or spray foam stuck to the underside of the roof. Spot two or more and something is probably wrong.

There are boards nailed straight onto my joists. Is that bad?

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.
