About this service
We look at your loft and tell you what is there, what condition it is in and what, if anything, it needs.
What’s included
- The depth and condition of the insulation
- Signs of damp, condensation or leaks
- How the loft is ventilated
- Signs of pests
- Pipes, tanks, cables and lights in the insulation
- A written quotation for any work suggested
We price the job after looking at your loft. You get a written quotation before any work is agreed.
Why ask for an inspection
Plenty of people have never been into their own loft. Some can’t: the hatch is too small, there is no ladder, or climbing up isn’t safe for them. Others have looked and weren’t sure what they saw. When we go up and look properly, we can tell you whether the insulation is deep enough, whether it is dry, whether the loft is ventilated and whether anything else needs attention.
What gets checked
We look at the depth of insulation and how evenly it is laid, any damp or mould, the eaves and ventilation, the hatch, water pipes and tanks, electrical cables and recessed lights, and any sign of pests or roof leaks. If there is spray foam on the underside of the roof, we will tell you.
What you get
What we found, and a written quotation for any work we suggest. Whether you go ahead is up to you. We will also note anything we see that isn’t our trade, such as a slipped tile or an electrical concern, so you can pass it to a roofer or electrician.
