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.

You get photos and a plain list of what we found and what we would do about it.

Plain-English advice
We explain what we find in plain English, and say so when nothing needs doing.
How much does a loft condensation investigation cost in Chester?
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 Chester
Do you cover all of CH1?
Yes, we cover the CH1 postcode district and the districts around Chester.
Will I get a written quote for work in Chester?
Yes. Every quote is in writing with the work, the price and what is included, so you can compare it properly.
Can a landlord in Chester book work for a tenanted house?
Yes. We can arrange access with the tenant directly and send you photos once the work is finished.
Is condensation in my loft normal?
A little on the coldest nights can be normal, especially with old felt. Dripping, wet insulation or mould are signs to investigate.
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.
