Insulating and boarding in Grays
About a third of homes here are semis (36%). Their lofts usually have room for a decent storage area once the insulation is up to depth.
24% of homes in Grays are terraced. Terrace lofts are small, so full-depth insulation is quick; a strip of raised boarding by the hatch is often all the storage there’s room for.
29% of homes in Grays are flats. The loft above a top-floor flat usually belongs to the freeholder, so check your lease first.
Private renting is common in Grays (21%). A loft insulated to full depth is one of the quickest improvements a landlord can make.
Measuring up means looking at how much is stored up there now, the depth of the insulation in a few places and whether the eaves are clear. It takes well under an hour.
