12% of Whickham’s homes are terraces. A draughty landing under the hatch is common in them, and an insulated hatch sorts it.
With 46% of homes owned outright, plenty of Whickham lofts still have their original insulation. A top-up can make a lovely difference.
In a Whickham home that needs more loft insulation, you might notice a top floor that feels colder than downstairs, a loft nobody has looked in for years or the heating running for longer than you’d like. Any one of them is a good reason to ask.
