Loft insulation for Ilkley homes
With 22% of households in semis, a lot of Ilkley lofts double as storage. A raised floor keeps your things and your warmth.
About a quarter of homes here are terraced (23%). Older terraces often suit natural materials like sheep’s wool, which cope well with moisture.
29% of homes in Ilkley are flats. If yours is on the top floor, the loft above usually belongs to the freeholder, so check your lease first.
49% of households own outright, so many people have lived in their homes for years. Insulation laid back then is often thinner than recommended today.
