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.

Building standards in Scotland
In Scotland, insulating an existing loft does not normally need a building warrant, but the building standards still apply. How the rules work across the UK.
Questions about a loft condensation investigation in Dumfries
Do you charge extra to travel to Dumfries?
Not normally. Our guide prices include normal travel to Dumfries. If an address needs a ferry or an unusually long journey, we tell you the cost before you book.
Will I get a written quote for work in Dumfries?
Yes. Every quote is in writing with the work, the price and what is included, so you can compare it properly.
Do you cover all of DG1?
Yes, we cover the DG1 postcode district and the districts around Dumfries.
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.
