The loft jobs we do in Herne Bay
About a third of homes in Herne Bay are detached (39%). Many newer ones have trussed roofs, which shape where boards can go.
22% of Herne Bay’s housing is semi-detached. In older semis the hatch is often small; we can enlarge it for a ladder.
Flats make up 28% of homes. For a top-floor flat, the freeholder or managing agent normally has to agree to loft work.
Private renting is common in Herne Bay (21%). A loft insulated to full depth is one of the quickest improvements a landlord can make.
With 43% owning outright, plenty of Herne Bay lofts still have their original thin layer. If you can see joists, it needs more.
Measuring up means looking at the headroom where a storage floor could go, the size of the hatch and where a ladder would land and how much is stored up there now. That’s what decides the depth, the boarded area and the ladder.
