What Leicester lofts usually need
37% of homes in Leicester are semis. Many have tall lofts with good headroom, just right for a raised storage floor over full-depth insulation.
With 27% of homes terraced, compact lofts are common in Leicester. Keep the eaves clear and the job is usually done in a morning.
28% of households rent privately. Landlords can book us; most rental lofts are done in a day with the tenants at home.
Before quoting, we measure the depth of the insulation in a few places, whether the old insulation is dry and clean and whether the roof is trussed or traditional. Then every part goes in the quote with its own price.
