What goes wrong in Wick lofts

With 31% of households in semis, a lot of the lofts we see in Wick have old insulation that needs stripping out rather than topping up.

About a third of homes here are terraced (32%). Small lofts fill up with storage fast, and the insulation underneath ends up flat and cold.

If you can get into the loft, look out for insulation that sits level with or below the tops of the joists, grey, dusty insulation that has lost its spring or boxes sitting straight on the insulation. Spot two or more and something is probably wrong.
