What that means for your loft

Semi-detached homes (48% here) share one party wall and often have a reasonable amount of loft space. That makes them good candidates for raised boarding over the insulation if you want to keep using the loft for storage.

Rows of terraced homes account for 15% of the housing in Mansfield Woodhouse. In a terrace, heat can be lost through a thin or patchy layer just as easily as through an empty loft, so we look at how even the existing insulation is as well as how deep.

Loft insulation in Mansfield Woodhouse: questions

What kind of homes are there in Mansfield Woodhouse?

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 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.

What if there’s damp or mould in my loft?

Mention it when you enquire. Damp or mouldy insulation normally needs removing, and the cause (a leak or poor ventilation, for example) dealing with, before new insulation goes in.
