What it means for the lofts here
With 29% 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 one in eight of homes here are terraced (16%). In a smaller loft, storage tends to end up sitting on the insulation, so a modest raised floor is often worth adding.
Flats and maisonettes account for 32% of homes here. If yours is on the top floor, the loft above is often shared, and the freeholder or managing agent will need to agree to any work.

Can I insulate the loft above my top-floor flat?

How can I tell if mine is too thin?
If you can see the tops of the joists, it probably is.
