Common loft jobs in Houghton Regis

With 42% of homes terraced, many lofts in Houghton Regis 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.

Semis make up 33% of homes here. In many, the loft is used for storage and the insulation has been pushed aside or flattened over the years, so even an insulated loft can be worth a second look.

Loft insulation in Houghton Regis: questions

Are most homes in Houghton Regis houses or flats?

Houses: 87% of households live in a detached, semi-detached or terraced house or bungalow, and 13% in a flat or maisonette (Census 2021). The most common single type is terraced houses, at 42%.

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.

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.
