The loft jobs we see in Blackwood

With 47% of households in semis, a common job here is topping up insulation that was laid years ago and adding storage that doesn’t squash it.

About a quarter of homes here are terraced (24%). In a smaller loft, storage tends to end up sitting on the insulation, so a modest raised floor is often worth adding.

What are most homes in Blackwood like?

The most common are semi-detached houses (47% of households at the 2021 Census), followed by terraced houses at 24%.

How can I tell if mine is too thin?

If you can see the tops of the joists, it probably is.

Does sheep’s wool insulate as well as mineral wool?

About as well, depth for depth. People choose it because it’s pleasant to handle and copes well with damp.

I’m in a village outside Blackwood. Can I still ask?

Of course. Villages and nearby towns such as Ystrad Mynach, Risca, Abertillery, Caerphilly and Pontypridd are all covered. See all the towns we list in Caerphilly.

Can I keep my loft storage?

Yes. A floor raised on legs above the insulation keeps the storage without squashing the insulation.

Do you quote for landlords in Blackwood?

Yes, in the same way as for homeowners.
