The loft jobs we see in Little Lever
With 60% 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 (17%). In a smaller loft, storage tends to end up sitting on the insulation, so a modest raised floor is often worth adding.
43% of households own their home outright, so many people have been in the same house for years. Insulation laid back then was often thinner than what’s suggested today and may have settled since.

Questions about loft insulation in Little Lever
What are most homes in Little Lever like?
The most common are semi-detached houses (60% of households at the 2021 Census), followed by terraced houses at 17%.
Can I keep my loft storage?
Yes. A floor raised on legs above the insulation keeps the storage without squashing the insulation.
Is natural insulation more expensive?
Usually, yes. Sheep’s wool and recycled polyester cost more than mineral wool; we can quote for both.
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.
I’m in a village outside Little Lever. Can I still ask?
My loft was insulated years ago. Should I add more?
Very possibly. If it sits level with the top of the joists or below, a second layer across them is usually worthwhile.
