What goes wrong in Witney lofts

35% of the housing in Witney is semi-detached. When we open those hatches we often find cables buried under old insulation and eaves packed tight.

Terraces account for 23% of Witney’s homes. Where party walls stop short in the loft, warm air, smells and pests pass between houses; we close the gaps on your side.

If you can get into the loft, look out for cables buried out of sight under insulation, grey, dusty insulation that has lost its spring or black spots on the rafters or felt. If you’d rather not go up, we’ll look for you.

Loft problems in Witney: questions

What share of homes in Witney are houses?

82% are houses or bungalows; 18% are flats or maisonettes (Census 2021).

I rent in Witney and there’s damp in the loft. What do I do?

Tell your landlord, who is responsible for the building. Council and housing association tenants should report it to their repairs team. Landlords can book a loft check with us.

Can’t you just put new insulation on top?

Not over damp, soiled or mouldy insulation. That hides the problem. We fix the cause first.

Do you work outside Witney?

Yes, across England and Wales, including Carterton, Kidlington, Oxford, Abingdon-on-Thames and Wantage. Every town we list in Oxfordshire.

Can I keep storing things in the loft?

Yes, on a floor raised above the insulation so it isn’t squashed.

Where does new insulation go?

On the loft floor, between and over the joists, with the eaves kept clear.
