Loft problems in Streetly: questions

What share of homes in Streetly are houses?

89% are houses or bungalows; 11% are flats or maisonettes (Census 2021).

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.

Where does new insulation go?

On the loft floor, between and over the joists, with the eaves kept clear.

My loft insulation is decades old. Does it need replacing?

If it’s dry and clean, a top-up may be enough. If it’s dusty, damp or soiled, it should come out.

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.

Do you work outside Streetly?

Yes, across England and Wales, including Aldridge, Royal Sutton Coldfield, Rushall and Shelfield, Walsall and Brownhills. Every town we list in Walsall.
