What that means for your loft
With 34% of homes semi-detached, a common job in Chatteris is bringing an existing layer up to depth and adding raised storage boards so the insulation isn’t squashed.
Rows of terraced homes account for 21% of the housing in Chatteris. In a terrace, heat can be lost through a thin or patchy layer just as easily as through an empty loft, so we look at how even the existing insulation is as well as how deep.
