Loft insulation removal and repairs in Windsor

Common loft faults here

Semis are 24% of homes in Windsor. One shared wall, a big hipped or gabled loft, and often a cold tank and pipes sitting in it unlagged.

27% of homes in Windsor 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.

33% of homes in Windsor are flats. The roof space above a top-floor flat usually belongs to the freeholder, so check your lease before any work.

25% of households rent privately. Condensation from drying clothes indoors often ends up in the loft; landlords can book a check.

Worth checking in a Windsor loft: boxes sitting straight on the insulation, a cold draught round the loft hatch or eaves packed so tight no daylight shows. If you’d rather not go up, we’ll look for you.
