What goes wrong in Weston-super-Mare lofts

30% of homes in Weston-super-Mare are semis. Their roomy lofts tend to have decades of storage sitting on thin, flattened insulation, often on boards nailed straight to the joists.

About one in five of homes here are terraced (18%). Small lofts fill up with storage fast, and the insulation underneath ends up flat and cold.

Flats are 32% 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.

Private renting is common in Weston-super-Mare (26%). The loft is easy for landlords to forget until damp shows through a ceiling.

Signs that something is wrong up there include 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.
