What it means for the lofts here
With 27% 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 (28%). In a smaller loft, storage tends to end up sitting on the insulation, so a modest raised floor is often worth adding.

Questions about loft insulation in Cambourne
What are most homes in Cambourne like?
The most common are detached houses (34% of households at the 2021 Census), followed by terraced houses at 28%.
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.
How can I tell if mine is too thin?
If you can see the tops of the joists, it probably is.
