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 Oadby
Can a landlord in Oadby book work for a tenanted house?
Yes. We can arrange access with the tenant directly and send you photos once the work is finished.
Do you charge extra to travel to Oadby?
Not normally. Our guide prices include normal travel to Oadby. If an address needs a ferry or an unusually long journey, we tell you the cost before you book.
Do you cover all of LE2?
Yes, we cover the LE2 postcode district and the districts around Oadby.
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.
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.
