What homes in Stanley look like
Stanley is made up of some 9,420 households, according to the 2021 Census. The split is 52% terraces, 30% semis, 12% detached houses and bungalows, 6% flats and maisonettes. 54% of homes are owner-occupied, 27% of them mortgage-free; 20% are let privately and 27% by social landlords.
What Stanley lofts usually need
About half of homes here are terraces (52%). Older ones may have roofs without felt, which makes airflow at the eaves important.
With 30% of households in semis, we often find boards nailed straight to the joists with thin, squashed insulation underneath.
Private renting is common in Stanley (20%). A loft insulated to full depth is one of the quickest improvements a landlord can make.
Measuring up means looking at the size of the hatch and where a ladder would land, whether the eaves are clear and the depth of the insulation in a few places. Then every part goes in the quote with its own price.

My hatch is tiny. Can I still have a ladder?
Often yes. Slim ladders fit small hatches, and we can enlarge the opening where the ceiling allows.
