Common loft jobs in Street
41% of households in Street live in a semi-detached house. A typical semi has a loft big enough for storage, a hatch on the landing and one party wall to insulate up to; we check all three.
With 24% of homes terraced, many lofts in Street 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.
Private renting is common here (20% of households). Tenants should raise insulation with their landlord, who is responsible for the building; landlords can request a quote through us like any homeowner.

Loft insulation in Street: questions
What kind of homes are there in Street?
At the 2021 Census, 41% of households in Street lived in semi-detached houses, 24% in terraced houses, 19% in detached houses and 15% in flats.
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.
How do I know if my loft needs more insulation?
If the insulation is level with or below the top of the joists, it’s likely well short of the 270mm commonly recommended for mineral wool. We will check when we look.
Do you cover the villages around Street?
Yes. We take enquiries from anywhere in England and Wales, so villages and smaller places around Street are covered too, as are nearby towns such as Wells, Bridgwater, Yeovil, Burnham-on-Sea and Sherborne. See every town we list in Somerset.
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.
Can landlords in Street get quotes?
Yes. 20% of households in Street 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.
