The loft jobs we do in Portishead
22% of Portishead’s housing is semi-detached. In older semis the hatch is often small; we can enlarge it for a ladder.
13% of Portishead’s homes are terraced houses, where boxes tend to pile up on the insulation because there’s nowhere else for them. A small raised deck fixes that.
Flats make up 28% of homes. For a top-floor flat, the freeholder or managing agent normally has to agree to loft work.
40% of households own outright, so many lofts here were insulated years ago to a lower standard. A top-up across the joists is usually the fix.
On the visit we note whether the old insulation is dry and clean, the headroom where a storage floor could go and the depth of the insulation in a few places. That’s what decides the depth, the boarded area and the ladder.

Loft insulation in Portishead: common questions
What are most homes in Portishead?
Detached houses (37% of households, Census 2021), then flats (28%).
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.
I’m a few miles from Portishead. Can you come out?
How do I measure mine?
Push a ruler down through it to the ceiling in a few places, standing on a joist.
Can I have storage and full-depth insulation?
Yes: a raised floor on legs sits above the insulation so it isn’t squashed.
Do you list prices?
No, lofts vary too much. Your written quote prices each part separately.
