Common loft faults here
38% of the housing in Wallsend is semi-detached. When we open those hatches we often find cables buried under old insulation and eaves packed tight.
25% of homes in Wallsend are terraces. Older terrace lofts often have no roof felt, gaps through the party walls and insulation pushed into the eaves, which is a recipe for damp timber.
27% of homes in Wallsend are flats. The roof space above a top-floor flat usually belongs to the freeholder, so check your lease before any work.
If you can get into the loft, look out for eaves packed so tight no daylight shows, water marks on the ceiling under the loft or droppings, tunnels or shredded insulation. Any one of them is worth a free check.
