What that means for your loft
With 40% of homes terraced, many lofts in Haslingden 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.
With 23% of homes semi-detached, a common job in Haslingden is bringing an existing layer up to depth and adding raised storage boards so the insulation isn’t squashed.

Loft insulation in Haslingden: questions
What kind of homes are there in Haslingden?
At the 2021 Census, 40% of households in Haslingden lived in terraced houses, 24% in detached houses, 23% in semi-detached houses and 13% in flats.

Does a terraced house need anything different?
The main things are getting insulation right up to the party walls, checking those walls are complete between lofts, and working through what is often a small hatch. Lofts are usually compact, so less material is needed.
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.
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.
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.
