Loft insulation in Penwortham

Common loft jobs in Penwortham

Semi-detached homes (53% 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 11% of the housing in Penwortham. 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.

44% 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.
