The loft jobs we see in Brentwood
Semi-detached houses account for 29% of homes. In many, an older thin layer just needs bringing up to depth with a second layer across the joists, in mineral wool or a natural alternative.
17% of homes in Brentwood are terraced. Terrace lofts are usually compact, with brick party walls either side; the insulation should meet each wall without gaps, and we check the walls themselves are complete.
29% of homes in Brentwood are flats. Only the top floor sits under a roof space, which usually belongs to the freeholder, so it’s worth checking your lease before planning any work.
