Loft services in Tonyrefail
Common loft faults here
Around two in five of homes here are semi-detached (40%). Boxes stacked on thin insulation for years is the usual story in those lofts.
About a quarter of homes here are terraced (27%). Small lofts fill up with storage fast, and the insulation underneath ends up flat and cold.
Signs that something is wrong up there include spray foam stuck to the underside of the roof, a cold draught round the loft hatch or boxes sitting straight on the insulation. Spot two or more and something is probably wrong.

Loft problems in Tonyrefail: questions
What type of home is most common in Tonyrefail?
Semi-detached houses, at 40% of households in the 2021 Census, then terraced houses at 27%.
Do you work for landlords in Tonyrefail?
Yes. We arrange access with you and your tenants and send photos of what we find.
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.
Is the loft check free?
Yes, with no obligation.
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.
