Loft services in Harlow
Keeping Harlow homes warm
45% of homes in Harlow are terraced. Terraced houses share walls with their neighbours, which helps, but the roof is still where most warmth can slip away, so the loft is the place to start.
About one in five of homes here are semis (17%), often family homes where the loft has been filling up for years.
Flats make up 28% of homes here. Top-floor flats can benefit most from loft insulation, with the freeholder’s agreement.
Signs your loft could do more include boxes sitting on the insulation, a cold draught on the landing or an icy hatch above the stairs. Any one of them is a good reason to ask.
