What it means for the lofts here
34% of homes in Grantham are semi-detached. A typical semi has a roomy loft with one party wall, plenty of space to insulate well and often to store things too, on a floor raised above the insulation.
Terraces make up 23% of the housing here. Many are older, with roofs that like to stay dry, so breathable materials such as sheep’s wool can be a comfortable fit alongside good airflow at the eaves.
Private renting is common in Grantham (23% of households). Landlords are responsible for the building, and a warm, well-ventilated loft is one of the simpler improvements to a rented home.
