What that means for your loft

Semis make up 44% of homes here. In many, the loft is used for storage and the insulation has been pushed aside or flattened over the years, so even an insulated loft can be worth a second look.

Rows of terraced homes account for 23% of the housing in Walkden. 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.

I rent my home in Walkden. Can I get loft insulation?

Talk to your landlord first, as changes to the building are their decision and normally their cost. Council and housing association tenants should contact their landlord’s repairs or maintenance team. Landlords can ask us for a quote just as homeowners do.

Do you cover the villages around Walkden?

Yes. We take enquiries from anywhere in England and Wales, so villages and smaller places around Walkden are covered too, as are nearby towns such as Little Hulton, Worsley, Kearsley, Farnworth and Swinton. See every town we list in Salford.

Will I lose my loft storage?

Not necessarily. Raised boarding sits on supports above the insulation, so the insulation keeps its full depth and you keep somewhere to store things.

How much does loft insulation cost in Walkden?

It depends on the size of the loft, how much insulation is there now, whether old material needs removing and how easy the loft is to work in. We give you a written quotation after finding out about your home.
