Lofts in Solihull
With 45% 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.
Fewer than one in ten of homes here are terraced (9%). 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 Solihull
What are most homes in Solihull like?
The most common are semi-detached houses (45% of households at the 2021 Census), followed by detached houses at 28%.
Can I keep my loft storage?
Yes. A floor raised on legs above the insulation keeps the storage without squashing the insulation.
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.
I’m in a village outside Solihull. Can I still ask?
Of course. Villages and nearby towns such as Knowle and Dorridge, Birmingham, Smethwick, Redditch and Catshill are all covered. See all the towns we list in Solihull.
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.
Is natural insulation more expensive?
Usually, yes. Sheep’s wool and recycled polyester cost more than mineral wool; we can quote for both.
