Insulating and boarding in Darlaston
With 44% of households in semis, we often find boards nailed straight to the joists with thin, squashed insulation underneath.
Terraces are 27% of the housing here. Many have narrow landing hatches, so a slim folding ladder makes a big difference.
Private renting is common in Darlaston (20%). A loft insulated to full depth is one of the quickest improvements a landlord can make.
On the visit we note where the tank and pipes sit, the size of the hatch and where a ladder would land and the depth of the insulation in a few places. It takes well under an hour.
