Herne’s homes by the numbers
Herne counted roughly 6,090 households in Census 2021. Detached houses and bungalows make up 41% of homes, semis 39%, terraces 14% and flats and maisonettes 6%. Owned: 80% (outright 42%). Private rent: 13%. Social rent: 7%.
The loft jobs we do in Herne
Around two in five of homes in Herne are detached (41%). Many newer ones have trussed roofs, which shape where boards can go.
39% of Herne’s housing is semi-detached. In older semis the hatch is often small; we can enlarge it for a ladder.
With 42% owning outright, plenty of Herne lofts still have their original thin layer. If you can see joists, it needs more.
On the visit we note whether the old insulation is dry and clean, the depth of the insulation in a few places and whether the eaves are clear. That’s what decides the depth, the boarded area and the ladder.

Loft insulation in Herne: common questions
What are most homes in Herne?
Detached houses (41% of households, Census 2021), then semi-detached houses (39%).
My loft was done years ago. Is it enough?
Measure it. If it’s level with the joists or less, a top-up across them is worth it.
Do I need to empty the loft?
The floor needs to be clear. We can clear it for you.
I’m a few miles from Herne. Can you come out?
Yes. Herne Bay, Whitstable, Canterbury, Faversham and Margate and the villages around are covered. See every town in Kent.
How do I measure mine?
Push a ruler down through it to the ceiling in a few places, standing on a joist.
My loft is big. Can I board just part of it?
Yes. Most people board a walkway and a storage area near the hatch; it’s priced by area.
