Most families here live in terraced homes (60%), followed by semi-detached homes (23%); flats and maisonettes make up 9% and detached homes and bungalows 8%. 32% own their home outright and 22% are buying with a mortgage. 31% rent privately and 15% rent socially. Three-bedroom homes or larger make up about 50%.
What we do for homes in Nelson
60% of Nelson’s homes are terraces. A draughty landing under the hatch is common in them, and an insulated hatch sorts it.
Semi-detached homes account for 23%. Many were insulated years ago, and a top-up across the joists brings them up to today’s commonly recommended depth.
Renting is common in Nelson (31% privately). A warmer loft makes a rented home more comfortable, and landlords can book with us.
In a Nelson home that needs more loft insulation, you might notice a chilly top-floor bathroom, joists showing through thin insulation or ceilings upstairs that feel cold to the touch. We can help with every one of them.

Questions from homeowners in Nelson
What kind of homes are there in Nelson?
Mostly terraced homes (60% of households in 2021), then semi-detached homes (23%).
My home is just outside Nelson. Can you help?
Of course. We cover Brierfield, Colne, Burnley, Padiham and Barnoldswick and the villages around them. See all our towns in Lancashire.
Can I keep using my loft for storage?
Yes. A raised floor above the insulation keeps your storage and your warmth.
Is sheep’s wool good for an older terrace?
It can be, as it copes well with moisture. Mineral wool works too and costs less; we can quote for both.
Is the quote free?
Yes, and there’s no obligation.
Why insulate the loft first?
Heat rises, so the loft is where a lot of warmth can escape. It’s usually the simplest place to start.
