Questions about a loft condensation investigation in Preston
How do I pay for work in Preston?
Payment terms are set out on your quote. We never ask for payment on the doorstep or in cash.
Do you cover all of PR1?

Will I get a written quote for work in Preston?
Yes. Every quote is in writing with the work, the price and what is included, so you can compare it properly.
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.
