Insulating and boarding in Teignmouth
17% of Teignmouth’s housing is semi-detached. In older semis the hatch is often small; we can enlarge it for a ladder.
About one in five of homes here are terraces (17%). Older ones may have roofs without felt, which makes airflow at the eaves important.
33% of homes in Teignmouth are flats. The loft above a top-floor flat usually belongs to the freeholder, so check your lease first.
Private renting is common in Teignmouth (22%). A loft insulated to full depth is one of the quickest improvements a landlord can make.
With 44% owning outright, plenty of Teignmouth lofts still have their original thin layer. If you can see joists, it needs more.
On the visit we note whether the old insulation is dry and clean, the headroom where a storage floor could go and how the cables run. It takes well under an hour.

Loft insulation in Teignmouth: common questions
Are most homes in Teignmouth houses or flats?
Houses or bungalows: 67%. Flats or maisonettes: 33% (Census 2021).
Where does the insulation go?
On the loft floor, between and across the joists, with the eaves left clear.
My loft boards are nailed to the joists. Is that a problem?
Usually the insulation underneath is squashed thin. We can lift the boards, insulate and put them back on legs.
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.
