Common loft jobs in Newcastle-under-Lyme

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; 44% of homes in Newcastle-under-Lyme are semi-detached.

About one in five of homes in Newcastle-under-Lyme are terraced (22%). 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.
