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 Bideford
Do you charge extra to travel to Bideford?
Not normally. Our guide prices include normal travel to Bideford. If an address needs a ferry or an unusually long journey, we tell you the cost before you book.

Can a landlord in Bideford 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.
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.
