The loft jobs we see in Chelmsford

With 32% 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 five of homes here are terraced (22%). 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 26% 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.
