Common loft jobs in Cobham
With 52% of homes detached, larger lofts are common here. A bigger roof space takes more insulation, and it is worth checking that ventilation at the eaves is kept clear across the whole area.
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; 19% of homes in Cobham are semi-detached.

Loft insulation in Cobham: questions
What kind of homes are there in Cobham?
At the 2021 Census, 52% of households in Cobham lived in detached houses, 19% in semi-detached houses, 18% in flats and 10% in terraced houses.
I live just outside Cobham. Can I still enquire?

Who will carry out the work?
We will. We look at the loft, quote in writing and, if you go ahead, carry out the work on a date that suits you.
Can landlords in Cobham get quotes?
Yes. 17% of households in Cobham rent privately, and landlords can request a quote in the same way as owner-occupiers. Tenants should raise insulation with their landlord rather than arranging work themselves.
Is a big loft a problem?
No, it just takes more material and a little longer. Larger lofts also leave more room for raised storage boarding above the insulation if you want it.
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.
