Insulating and boarding in Ashton-in-Makerfield

54% of Ashton-in-Makerfield’s housing is semi-detached. In older semis the hatch is often small; we can enlarge it for a ladder.

With 20% of homes terraced, compact lofts are common in Ashton-in-Makerfield. Keep the eaves clear and the job is usually done in a morning.

44% of households own outright, so many lofts here were insulated years ago to a lower standard. A top-up across the joists is usually the fix.

On the visit we note how deep and how far apart the joists are, the size of the hatch and where a ladder would land and the headroom where a storage floor could go. It takes well under an hour.
