Older Atherton properties often have inadequate insulation installed decades ago that no longer meets modern standards. Stop the heat loss by identifying these specific insulation failures:
Insulation installed before 2008 is likely below current standards and significantly less effective than modern materials.
Wet or damp insulation loses thermal properties and can harbor mold. Complete replacement prevents ongoing problems.
Pests can severely contaminate your loft space. We specialize in removing rodent-damaged insulation to restore a safe and hygienic environment.
Many Atherton properties have only 100-150mm insulation. Upgrading to 270mm doubles thermal performance.
Uneven temperatures and cold areas indicate compressed or settling insulation that needs complete replacement.
If heating costs keep increasing, failed insulation is likely to blame. Replacement can cut bills by £455+ annually.
Many homeowners in Atherton contact us because they notice clear warning signs in their loft. If you recognise any of these, it's usually time for full loft insulation replacement – not just a top‑up.
A persistent musty odour from your loft in Atherton often means moisture‑damaged insulation, hidden leaks, or mould growth. Old insulation can hold moisture for months and never fully dry out.
Mice and rats love to nest in lofts. Droppings, scratching noises, and chewed cabling are clear signs of rodent-damaged insulation that needs safe removal and replacement.
If walking in your loft kicks up clouds of dust, or the insulation looks grey and compacted, it has usually lost most of its thermal performance and should be replaced.
Bedrooms directly below your loft in Atherton should be the warmest rooms in the house. If they are the coldest, your insulation is probably failing and costing you money every month.
