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.

Questions about a loft condensation investigation in Carlisle
Do you charge extra to travel to Carlisle?
Not normally. Our guide prices include normal travel to Carlisle. If an address needs a ferry or an unusually long journey, we tell you the cost before you book.
Do you take on jobs outside Carlisle?
Yes. We also work in Penrith and Cockermouth and elsewhere in Cumbria.
Do you cover all of CA3?
Yes, we cover the CA3 postcode district and the districts around Carlisle.
Is the investigation fee taken off the work?

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.
