What it means for the lofts here
With 30% 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 third of homes here are terraced (33%). 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 Cheshunt
What are most homes in Cheshunt like?
The most common are terraced houses (33% of households at the 2021 Census), followed by semi-detached houses at 30%.
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.
Do I need to clear the loft first?
The floor needs to be clear. If that’s a big job, tell us and we can include it.
Can I keep my loft storage?
Yes. A floor raised on legs above the insulation keeps the storage without squashing the insulation.
I’m in a village outside Cheshunt. Can I still ask?
Of course. Villages and nearby towns such as Waltham Cross, Waltham Abbey, Hoddesdon, Enfield and Potters Bar are all covered. See all the towns we list in Hertfordshire.
Is natural insulation more expensive?
Usually, yes. Sheep’s wool and recycled polyester cost more than mineral wool; we can quote for both.
