What that means for your loft
46% of households in Aberdare live in a terraced house. Terrace lofts are usually compact, which keeps the amount of material down, but the work is in getting good coverage up to the party walls and into the eaves without blocking ventilation.
With 26% of homes semi-detached, a common job in Aberdare is bringing an existing layer up to depth and adding raised storage boards so the insulation isn’t squashed.
