What that means for your loft

Semi-detached homes (66% 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 9% of the housing in Scawthorpe and Cusworth. 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.

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.

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.

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.

Yes. 12% of households in Scawthorpe and Cusworth rent privately, and landlords can request a quote in the same way as owner-occupiers. Tenants should raise insulation with their landlord rather than arranging work themselves.
