Loft insulation in Wrexham’s homes
Many semis have lofts that have been part-boarded over the years, often straight onto the joists. Where that has flattened the insulation underneath, raised boarding lets you keep the storage and restore the insulation; 33% of homes in Wrexham are semi-detached.
With 22% of homes terraced, many lofts in Wrexham 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.
With 21% of households in private rented homes, tenants in Wrexham should talk to their landlord about insulation. Most improvements to the building are the landlord’s to arrange.

Loft insulation in Wrexham: questions
How common are semi-detached houses in Wrexham?
Very: 33% of households lived in semi-detached houses at the 2021 Census, the largest group, ahead of detached houses at 24%.
I live just outside Wrexham. Can I still enquire?
Of course. Coverage isn’t limited to the town: enquiries come from right across England and Wales, including Rhosllannerchrugog, Buckley, Hawarden, Chester and Connah's Quay. See every town we list in Wrexham.
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.
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.
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.
Can landlords in Wrexham get quotes?
Yes. 21% of households in Wrexham 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.
