What that means for your loft

Many semis have lofts that have been part-boarded over the years, often straight onto the joists. Where that has flattened the insulation underneath, raised boarding lets you keep the storage and restore the insulation; 23% of homes in Marlow are semi-detached.

With 29% of homes terraced, many lofts in Marlow 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.

Coverage isn’t limited to Marlow: we also take enquiries from Flackwell Heath and Wooburn Green, High Wycombe, Maidenhead, Beaconsfield and Hazlemere and the villages in between.

We will usually want to know the type of house, roughly when it was built, and whether there is any insulation in the loft already. Photos of the loft can help if it’s easy to take them.

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.

How long does the work take?

A typical loft is usually done within a day once booked. Removing old insulation first, fitting boarding or awkward access can add time; we will tell you when we quote.

I rent my home in Marlow. 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.
