Common loft jobs in Kenilworth
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.
17% of households in Kenilworth 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.
With 47% of homes owned outright, many people in Kenilworth have lived in the same house for years. Insulation laid decades ago was often thinner than today’s recommended depth and may have settled, so a top-up is worth checking.

Will I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the loft hatch. We agree the details with you when you book.
My loft was insulated years ago. Is that enough?
Possibly not. Older insulation was often laid thinner than the depth recommended today, and mineral wool settles over time. If it sits level with the top of the joists or below, a top-up is worth considering.
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.
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.
