What it means for the lofts here
With 50% 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 (21%). In a smaller loft, storage tends to end up sitting on the insulation, so a modest raised floor is often worth adding.
