Lofts in Royton
With 41% 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 (30%). In a smaller loft, storage tends to end up sitting on the insulation, so a modest raised floor is often worth adding.
40% 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 Royton
What are most homes in Royton like?
The most common are semi-detached houses (41% of households at the 2021 Census), followed by terraced houses at 30%.
I’m in a village outside Royton. Can I still ask?
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.
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.
Can I keep my loft storage?
Yes. A floor raised on legs above the insulation keeps the storage without squashing the insulation.
How can I tell if mine is too thin?
If you can see the tops of the joists, it probably is.
