Loft insulation in Swadlincote’s homes
42% of households in Swadlincote 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 20% of homes terraced, many lofts in Swadlincote 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.
