Loft problems we see in Sunbury-on-Thames

With 28% of households in semis, a lot of the lofts we see in Sunbury-on-Thames have old insulation that needs stripping out rather than topping up.

23% 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.

Flats are 28% of homes here. If damp is coming through your top-floor ceiling, the freeholder or managing agent needs to agree to work in the loft above.

Before you book, have a look for water marks on the ceiling under the loft, a musty smell as the hatch opens or spray foam stuck to the underside of the roof. Spot two or more and something is probably wrong.
