Loft services in Stretford
Common loft faults here
About half of homes here are semi-detached (48%). Boxes stacked on thin insulation for years is the usual story in those lofts.
About a quarter of homes here are terraced (25%). Small lofts fill up with storage fast, and the insulation underneath ends up flat and cold.
Before you book, have a look for boxes sitting straight on the insulation, water marks on the ceiling under the loft or spray foam stuck to the underside of the roof. Spot two or more and something is probably wrong.

Loft problems in Stretford: questions
What type of home is most common in Stretford?
Semi-detached houses, at 48% of households in the 2021 Census, then terraced houses at 25%.
What causes black spots on loft timber?
Usually condensation: warm, moist air from the house reaching cold timber. Fans venting into the loft and blocked eaves are common causes.
There are boards nailed straight onto my joists. Is that bad?
It usually means the insulation underneath is squashed. We lift the boards, fix the insulation and put storage back on a raised floor.
I live just outside Stretford. Is that covered?

Yes. We arrange access with you and your tenants and send photos of what we find.
