Common loft jobs in Cheadle

Many semis have lofts that have been part-boarded over the years, often straight onto the joists. Where that has flattened the insulation underneath, raised boarding lets you keep the storage and restore the insulation; 42% of homes in Cheadle are semi-detached.

With 15% of homes terraced, many lofts in Cheadle are long and narrow, bounded by party walls on both sides. Insulation should run right up to each party wall, and we check that the wall between lofts is complete, as in some older terraces it isn’t.

44% of homes are owned outright, so many households have been in place for a long time. Insulation fitted when they moved in may be well short of today’s recommended depth, especially if the loft has been used for storage.

Loft insulation in Cheadle: questions

How common are semi-detached houses in Cheadle?

Very: 42% of households lived in semi-detached houses at the 2021 Census, the largest group, ahead of detached houses at 36%.

Of course. Coverage isn’t limited to the town: enquiries come from right across England and Wales, including Stoke-on-Trent, Uttoxeter, Leek, Stone and Newcastle-under-Lyme. See every town we list in Staffordshire.

Will I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the loft hatch. We agree the details with you when you book.

How do I know if my loft needs more insulation?

If the insulation is level with or below the top of the joists, it’s likely well short of the 270mm commonly recommended for mineral wool. We will check when we look.

My loft was insulated years ago. Is that enough?

Possibly not. Older insulation was often laid thinner than the depth recommended today, and mineral wool settles over time. If it sits level with the top of the joists or below, a top-up is worth considering.

My loft is boarded. Can it still be insulated?

Often, yes. Boards screwed straight onto the joists usually squash the insulation below. A common fix is to lift them, bring the insulation up to depth and fit raised boarding so you keep the storage space.
