What is a loft condensation investigation?
We inspect the loft in daylight and by torch, measure moisture in the timbers, check the underlay, ventilation, insulation and the routes that let warm air in from the house, and look at the roof from outside. You get written findings with photos and a plain list of what we recommend, which may include work we do not offer. More about a loft condensation investigation.

How much does a loft condensation investigation cost in Newmarket?
This work is not an energy-saving material for VAT, so it is standard-rated if VAT applies. Where it is done alongside insulation, the quote shows each part separately.
Building regulations in England
In England, a loft insulated across more than half its area should reach a U-value of 0.16 W/m²K. Insulation alone is not usually notified to building control. How the rules work across the UK.
Questions about a loft condensation investigation in Newmarket
Do you cover all of CB8?
Yes, we cover the CB8 postcode district and the districts around Newmarket.
Do you take on jobs outside Newmarket?
Yes. We also work in Ely and Cambridge and elsewhere in Cambridgeshire.
Can a landlord in Newmarket book work for a tenanted house?
Yes. We can arrange access with the tenant directly and send you photos once the work is finished.
Can loft insulation cause condensation?
It can expose an existing problem: the loft gets colder, so the same moist air condenses more readily. Ventilation and sealing air leaks put it right.
Is the investigation fee taken off the work?
The investigation is priced on its own so the advice is not tied to selling work. You decide what to do afterwards.
