Loft services in South Hayling
What it means for the lofts here
Detached houses make up 46% of homes in South Hayling. With no party walls, the insulation runs to the eaves on every side, so keeping airflow clear all the way round matters.
19% of homes in South Hayling 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.
Flats and maisonettes account for 25% of homes here. If yours is on the top floor, the loft above is often shared, and the freeholder or managing agent will need to agree to any work.
52% 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.
