What Penzance lofts usually need
About one in eight of homes here are semis (16%). Their lofts usually have room for a decent storage area once the insulation is up to depth.
37% of homes in Penzance 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.
34% of homes in Penzance are flats. The loft above a top-floor flat usually belongs to the freeholder, so check your lease first.
With 25% of homes let privately, we often work for landlords here and send photos when we’re done.
When we come out in Penzance we check how much is stored up there now, how deep and how far apart the joists are and the size of the hatch and where a ladder would land. Then every part goes in the quote with its own price.
