What we do for homes in Cowes
About a quarter of homes here are semis (30%), often family homes where the loft has been filling up for years.
22% of Cowes’s homes are terraces. A draughty landing under the hatch is common in them, and an insulated hatch sorts it.
22% of households rent privately. If you rent, loft insulation is your landlord’s decision, and they can ask us for a quote.
42% of households own outright, so many people have lived in their homes for years. Insulation laid back then is often thinner than recommended today.
Homeowners often tell us about ceilings upstairs that feel cold to the touch, warmth that fades soon after the heating goes off or old, flattened insulation in the loft. Any one of them is a good reason to ask.
