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.

Why book with us in St Helens
Plain-English advice
We explain what we find in plain English, and say so when nothing needs doing.
Fixed written price
The price on the quote is the price you pay. It only changes if you change the job, or if we find something hidden, such as rot, and you agree the change in writing first.
No pressure selling
You get everything in writing and decide in your own time.
Clear contact details
Your quote says who to call with questions before, during and after the work.
How much does a loft condensation investigation cost in St Helens?
This work is not an energy-saving material for VAT, so it is standard-rated if VAT applies. Where it is done alongside insulation, the quote shows each part separately.
Building regulations in England
In England, a loft insulated across more than half its area should reach a U-value of 0.16 W/m²K. Insulation alone is not usually notified to building control. How the rules work across the UK.

Not normally. Our guide prices include normal travel to St Helens. If an address needs a ferry or an unusually long journey, we tell you the cost before you book.
Is the investigation fee taken off the work?

A little on the coldest nights can be normal, especially with old felt. Dripping, wet insulation or mould are signs to investigate.
