Lofts in Hitchin
Semi-detached houses account for 33%. A typical job: top up the old layer to full depth, lay a raised deck and fit a ladder.
19% of homes in Hitchin 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.
Flats make up 29% of homes. For a top-floor flat, the freeholder or managing agent normally has to agree to loft work.
Before quoting, we measure whether the roof is trussed or traditional, the size of the hatch and where a ladder would land and whether the old insulation is dry and clean. You get the measurements and photos too.

Can you insulate above my top-floor flat?
Normally only with the freeholder’s or managing agent’s agreement. Check your lease first.
Can I have storage and full-depth insulation?
Yes: a raised floor on legs sits above the insulation so it isn’t squashed.
Do I need to empty the loft?
The floor needs to be clear. We can clear it for you.
Do you fit loft ladders?
Yes, on their own or with insulation and boarding.
