Loft insulation in Chandler's Ford

What that means for your loft

Detached homes (51% in Chandler's Ford) usually have the largest lofts, so the area to cover and the amount of material are greater. More space also means more room for boarded storage above the insulation.

Semi-detached homes (19% here) share one party wall and often have a reasonable amount of loft space. That makes them good candidates for raised boarding over the insulation if you want to keep using the loft for storage.

43% of households own their home outright. If your loft was last insulated many years ago, it may well be below the depth recommended today, as older layers were thinner and settle over time.
