What that means for your loft

With 32% of homes semi-detached, a common job in Eastleigh is bringing an existing layer up to depth and adding raised storage boards so the insulation isn’t squashed.

27% of households in Eastleigh 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.

How to get a quote

Coverage isn’t limited to Eastleigh: we also take enquiries from Chandler's Ford, West End, Hedge End, Southampton and Romsey and the villages in between.

If you can, mention anything you’ve noticed in the loft, such as damp patches, droppings or thin insulation. It helps us plan, but it isn’t essential.

Not necessarily. Raised boarding sits on supports above the insulation, so the insulation keeps its full depth and you keep somewhere to store things.
