Loft services in Kendal
What that means for your loft
With 33% of homes semi-detached, a common job in Kendal is bringing an existing layer up to depth and adding raised storage boards so the insulation isn’t squashed.
About a quarter of homes in Kendal are terraced (27%). Small lofts mean smaller jobs, but storage often ends up on the insulation in a tight space, so many terrace jobs combine a top-up with a small area of raised boarding.
42% of households own their home outright. If your loft was last insulated many years ago, it may well be below the depth recommended today, as older layers were thinner and settle over time.

Loft insulation in Kendal: questions
How common are semi-detached houses in Kendal?
Very: 33% of households lived in semi-detached houses at the 2021 Census, the largest group, ahead of terraced houses at 27%.
I rent my home in Kendal. Can I get loft insulation?
Talk to your landlord first, as changes to the building are their decision and normally their cost. Landlords can ask us for a quote just as homeowners do.
Will I lose my loft storage?
Not necessarily. Raised boarding sits on supports above the insulation, so the insulation keeps its full depth and you keep somewhere to store things.
Why can’t I see prices on the website?
Because every loft is different. The area, what’s up there already, access and any extra work change the price, so we quote once we know about your home.
Do I need to empty my loft first?
Usually the floor of the loft needs to be clear so the whole area can be insulated. We will tell you what we need when you book.
